Format:Hardcover|Amazon Verified Purchase
A beautiful book which reviews some of the best resorts in the world however there are many resorts missed out including the entire Porte de Soleil area.
Format:Hardcover
This is a great book. It sanitises everything and only points out the good bits, so not really much use as a guide to finding your ideal ski resort, but it's a great read.
