mid season 2012

Last winter, I had the pleasure of introducing a new book of ski writing by my friend, skier and ski writer par excellence, Dick Dorworth. His book of essays and ski fiction, The Perfect Turn, immediately found an appreciative audience and won a prestigious award from the US Ski History Association.

Great news! Dick has finished another book, The Straight Course, about his three years in pursuit of the world speed record on skis. Challenging himself as much as the mountain, Dick tested the limits of speed on skis, tested himself, and in the process, broke the world record, although that was more the beginning than the end of the story. The book is now available. Learn more about The Straight Course, by clicking on the new link to the left!

and something else new:
          a free (and beautiful) eBook
                        of Lito's best ski wriitng

A few years back I collected my best ski wrirting, matched it with Linde Waidhofer's beautiful ski photos from around the world, and published This Is Skiing. The book is a beaut and is available as a hardback from a page on this site. But ultimately I wanted more skiers to enjoy this book, so I created an eBook of This Is Skiing—an electronic version that you can enjoy on your computer screen or iPad. It's a free download. Take a look, enjoy it and share it with your skiing friends!
