Acclaimed surf scribe Paul Holmes weaves a brilliant historical account of surfing’s ultimate cowboy craftsman. If legend and lore are what you’re after, this book is a must. It’s a lavish 256-page hardcover edition with more than 250 photos spanning the legendary surfboard shaper’s entire life and career.
