Opinions of the Press
“A fascinating book on the most delightful of Continental winter sports. Not only is Mr. Rickmers a strenuous and accomplished ski-runner himself, but he has had years of experience as a teacher of the art, and his handy volume embodies everything that it is essential for the novice to know in order to become an efficient ski-runner in as short a time as possible”— T. P.’s Weekly.
“He is a teacher of vast experience, who has studied every defect in style that a beginner can possibly fall into, and has learned how to cure them all. If the novice with the aid of this book studies his every posture and action, practising the right and with pains correcting what he learns is wrong, he is on the high road to becoming a first-class runner.”— Scottish Ski Club Magazine.
“Mr Rickmers has written a lucid book which, as regards ski-ing, is cyclopædically exhaustive.”— Illustrated Sporting and Dramatic News.
