Absolutely Gorgeous! A Surfer's dream!

I stumbled upon this gem of a book in a local bookshop. First of all, the design of the book is absolutely adorable and gorgeous! The book comes in a frosted case with a surf-board shape cut into it. Peter Wise's gorgeous paintings bring to life the art of surfing. Each painting is accompanied by an anecdote, poem, or reflection on surfing. Some of the contributors are famous surfer's, and some are just surf aficionados. This book is a great gift for a friend or family member who loves surfing and the whole surf lifestyle.
