Read in April, 2012 — I own a copy, read count: 1
Nice delineation of the factors that determine swell: currents, weather patterns, the topography of the ocean floor, paired with stunning photographs edited by Surfer Magazine photo editor Peter Taras. Educational in a light, pleasant way. I did not know about Hawaii's perfectly sculpted distant reefs...
I also learned about why the Southern Swell is so coveted and that the waves tend to be spaced farther out.
