This book moves beyond sunshine and palm trees to get to the heart of a way of life that is in communion with nature and place.Surfing is a way of life. It is communion with place. Living with and by the tides, surfers are attuned to the environment. They experience the sea at all seasons, learn the movements of the ocean, feel the moods of the break.
