great tour of surf spots

I bought this for my boyfriend after he saw it for twice as much at a surf shop and he really likes the descriptions for every possible surf spot in North America. Beautiful photos as well.

Stormrider North America

I thought this was an awesome book. Good reading and pictures to go along with it. Its not completely exhaustive in terms of surf spots, but who want it that way? A great book overall I highly recommend it.
