The First Skydiving "Coffee Table" Book

"Back in the day," it was the few like Andy Keech who would strap a 35mm to their helmet and chronicle the hobby that is not much of a spectator sport, but sure leaves a big smile on your face. Andy has some text, but mostly it's pictures...good ones, from the days before huge formations and when getting 10 people together in a "star" formation was a real accomplishment, partly because the aircraft were limited for seating, and partly because that's all that had been figured out for freefall work. The gear used was entering it's age of breaking away from being military surplus, and actually designed for the sport, so it's good parachuting history there. Man small, why fall? Skies call, that's all. - Andy Keech
