| 2002 Adler, Tom (Introduction by George, Sam) : Surf Life 32 to 03 Tom Adler Books, Santa Barbara, California. 2002 Hard cover, un-numbered pages (approximately 120), colour, black and white, and sepia photographs, colour illustrations, Photographer credits. Review A portfolio of selected surfing images spanning 1932 to 2002, hence the sub-title. A similar format to Don James' Surfing San Onofre to Point Dume (1998) A wonderful collection, many photographs previously unpublished. Post-1980 photographs feature a dominating number of Quicksilver related images, unsurprising since the book was apparently produced as a company promotional gift. |

Alderson, Alf: Ultimate Surfing Adventures - 100 Extraordinary Experiences in Waves Wiley Nautical J. Wiley & Sons, Chichester, West Sussex ; Hoboken, N.J., 2011. Soft cover, 205 pages, colour maps and photographs. Review A sort of a surf guide, with various breaks, but often merely a general coastal area (for example, Victoria) listed in sections- Tropical, Temperate and Cold. The text is brief and the quality, or relevance, of the photographs varies considerably. The number of European breaks is, not doubt, a function of UK publication. More a coffee-table book, a number of other guide books are far more informative. |

| 2015 Aldrian-Moyle, Sue-Lyn: Surfing Down South- Discovering Yallingup and Margaret River Margaret River Press, Western Australia, 2015 Hard cover, 192 pages, black and white and colour photographs, Review Eclectic collection of photographs and recollections of surfing at Margaret River. Unfortunately, the chronology is diverse, in some cases jumping between decades from page to page. Essentially an oral history*, the recollections are occasionally inaccurate. Mostly amateur photographs, interspersed with the work of professionals John Witzig and Ric Chan. *Once an oral history is recorded or transcribed, can it then be said to be oral history? |
