It’s just OK,
Hey, this book is not bad. You get a list of the 100 best ski resorts of the world…mmm…isn’t that the title of the book? Good title. The information is very concise. But something is wrong. Something is terribly wrong with a book like this. Ah, yes…the information is easily outdated…nothing you can’t get from a web site which has more updated information. I can’t think of a good reason to buy this book because it is in black and white so you can’t exactly enjoy the photography which there is a terribly “lack of” in the book. You might want to save your money on this one. I did buy it, for your information, but I bought it used for pennies…and I still feel ripped off. Arrgg…
