Reviews
"This is an absolute gem and one of the best ski books I've seen. Its perfect for families who are planning on going away on their first ski trip, as well as regular skiers, and it really is what it says it is. The A-Z of skiing. The work that has gone into this book, not just the incredible art, but the perfectly explained details of skiing is quite amazing. You will not be disappointed." Pat Sharples, Head Coach, Team GB Snowsport; "Congratulations Kimberley Kay on producing an informative and memorably illustrated book to introduce newcomers to alpine skiing and learn the unique terms and movements in a straightforward way." Sarah Lewis OBE OLY. Global Sports Leader and Secretary General of FIS International Ski Federation 2000-2020; "An entertaining insight into the world of skiing, ideal for anyone new to the sport."

The shipping was just superior

The shipping was just superior; not even one of the books was in contact with the shipping box -anywhere-, not even a corner or the bottom, so all the books arrived in perfect condition. The international shipping took around 2 weeks, so pretty great too.

Found a hard to get book…

Finding a hard to get book on Booksplease and with it not being an over inflated price was great. Ordering was really easy with updates on despatch. The book was packaged well and in great condition. I will certainly use them again.
