Reseña del libro "Tracks in the Snow: Stories from a Life on Skis (en Inglés)"

A collection of short essays, memories, and reflections on the magic and addictive pleasures of sliding down snow-covered mountains on skis. Intensely lived and intensely told tales of a life on skis, by on of America's most accomplished and literary ski writers, Peter Shelton.Tracks in the Snow won the International Skiing History Association 2018 Ullr award, presented for a single outstanding contribution or several contributions to skiing's historical record in published book form.Reviews and reactions have been unanimously and unabashedly enthusiastic: "I am not a skier. And so when I began reading Tracks in the Snow I thought I might not be interested in all this about skiing. I was wrong. I soon began page-turning and was hooked... I read for many reasons, including for information, entertainment, insight, stimulation, brain exercise, word play and soul nutrition. When putting down Tracks in the Snow, at the end, I realized I had got something else from it. What to call it? The best I have come up with is Transfer of Experience. It was a wonderful experience."-Pat Cameron, Bend, Oregon, via email"Shelton takes us on a trip through his life that reaffirms his reputation as one of the best skiing writers of our time."-Billy Cyr, in The Avalanche Review"Peter is our literary Ullr."-Daiva Chesonis, owner Between the Covers Bookstore, Telluride: "A skier's progress from boyhood to old-man-of-the-mountain." "In a career spanning five decades, [Shelton] has acquired a following among readers who take sensuous pleasure in the way his sentences work.""These essays explain to us our own gob-smacked passion for the sport, and bring vividly alive what it was to live for skiing in the last third of the 20th century." -Seth Masia in SkiingHistory.or
