A Good But Somewhat Dated Introduction

This is a very good book in the Dorling Kindersley style, lots of details, sidebars, photos and facts. In 2-3 page sections, the book covers ski jumping, skiing, downhill racing, the slalom, freestyle, cross-country, and other snow sports (e.g., very brief mentions of dog-sled racing, the luge, bobsledding). Although too brief, and by now, quite outdated, it's a good short introduction to snow sports. Includes a glossary and an index, and lots of photos in its 32 pages.
