Informative and readable book on Avalanches

Avalanche expert Norm Wilson recommended this book to me and I'm glad he did. I find it very informative, but without putting me to sleep like "The Avalanche Handbook" does. It has lots of illustrations and practical information. I backcountry ski and recommend it to others who travel the backcountry in winter.
