2007 Baker, Chris: Surfing: A Visual Experience Little Hills Press, Sydney, 2007. Hardcover, 96 pages, colour photos, Index. Review A completely unremarkable collection of surfing and seashore photographs from around the world at Dawn, Day and Sunset.

1858 Ballantyne, R.M.: The Coral Island. Dean & Son, London. No date but circa early 1940s. Number 23 in the 'Dean's Classics' series. Originally published by T. Nelson and Sons, London, 1858. Hard cover, 248 pages. Review. While Ballantyne did not travel to the Pacific Islands before writing The Coral Island, the text clearly indicates that he read extensively on the subject before writing his classic boy's adventure novel in 1857. In his account of Polynesian surfriding (page 175) he appears to have read at least the published accounts of Cook's marineers in the Hawaiian Islands and the Rev. Ellis' reports from Tahiti and Hawaii. In particular, Ballantyne's remarks on swimming and diving (page 174) are probably derived from Ellis. See: 1858 R.M. Ballantyne: Coral Island Surfing. |

Soft cover, 112 pages, colour photographs, black and white photographs, Picture Credits. Review World surfing presented by country with notes on History, Locations, Surfer Profiles, Manufacturers and/or Shapers. Photography is mostly current as of 2005. Despite being edited (rather than written) from a number of diverse uncredited sources, the is no bibliograhy or attempt to credit them. The book has a large number of errors. In Australia, the Gocher Myth is again repeated (page 55), and the section on Duke Kahanamoku (pages 55 to 57) has several inaccuracies. |

1964 Bascom, Willard : Waves and Beaches - the Dynamics of the Ocean Surface. Anchor Books Doubleday and Company Inc. Garden City, New York 1964. Soft cover, 267 pages, 25 black and white plates, 77 black and white illustrations Bibliography, Index. Review The definite account of breaking wave dynamics and their effect on coastal landforms. Of specific interest to surfers are Surfing on Waves, pages 126 to 129 and Chapter VIII The Surf, which includes Willard Bascom's method for estimating breaking wave height, page 173, Figure 56. A detailed discussion of this method is at Estimating Wave Height. |
1988 Bascom, Wllard : The Crest of the Wave - Adventures in Oceanography. Harper and Rowe Publishers, New York 1988 Hard cover, 318 pages, 54 black and white plates. Review Entertaining account by one of the pioneers of the science of oceanography and the author of Waves and Beaches, 1964. Chapter I Surveying the Surf, is of most interest to the surfing reader - note in particular a simple method to measure wave height, page 7 and the associated plates, facing page114 and following. Chapter XII Ocean Pollution? is well argued and flys in the face of many commonly accepted theories. Of obsure intest are Chapter IV : From Cancer to Capricorn and Chapter VI : Living with Nuclear Explosions, detailing the study of waves produced by nuclear tests at Bikini Atoll, 1951 - 1954. Despite the enormous energy released in these explosions, "the waves produced ... were less than phenonomal." - page 164. |

Review Dynamic surfer and personality (contrast MR) provides an entertaining story of the boy from the wrong side of the tracks who made good. Covers a vast range of surfers, waves, contests and countries. Production is less than satisfactory – poor binding and the limited number of photographs are cramped.

1875 Bird, Isabella L.: Six Months in the Sandwich Isles- Amoung Hawai'i's Palm Groves, Coral Reefs and Volcanoes. John Murray, London, 1875. Pages 14, 69-70, 203, 281-282. G. P. Putman's Sons, New York, 1881. Mutual Publishing, 1215 Center Street, Suite 210 Honolulu, Hawaii 96816. 1988, 2001, 2004. Review Isabella L. Bird's Six Months in the Sandwich Isles is a wonderfully written book and valuable historical resource. Apart from her engaging style, the account (based on a collection of letters originally written to her sister) reads as an authentic voice. See Isabella L. Bird : Surfriding at Waikiki, Hilo and Kauai 1873 |
1935 Blake, Tom Hawaiian Surfboard Paradise of the Pacific Press, Honolulu, Hawaii 1935 Hard cover with various dustjackets, 95 pages (text), black and white photographs. Review Dela Vega (2004) notes four 'editions': The initial printing was hard cover with a dust jacket, followed by an imprinted cloth cover, which was probably the original without the dust jacket. The were two later editions in tapa cloth dust jackets. Lynch and Gault-Williams (2001) imply that the tapa cloth cover editions, highly prized by contemporary collectors, were apparently an attempt by Blake to value-add to his stock of unsold copies, page ?

2010
Borte, Jason: The Kook's Guide to Surfing Surfers i Publishing. Virginia Beach, Virgina, USA, 2010. Soft cover, 387 pages, black and white illustrations and photographs, Other works, Glossary. Review. Another introduction to basic surfing technique. Interestingly, in an observation rarely noted, Borte writes: "Finally, the time spent actually 'riding' makes a miniscule portion of the time attributed to surfing. Before any riding can take place, one must check the conditions, suit up and wax up, paddle out, get in line, choose a wave and catch it. The ride typically measures in seconds, and after that another hunk of time - typically anywhere from a few minutes to half an hour - will pass before the next is ridden. In the interim, there is more paddling, and often sitting, waiting, searching, and hoping." - page 4. |

Bowker, R.M. and Bligh, Lt. William: Mutiny!! Aboard HM Armed Transport 'Bounty' in 1789 Bowker and Bertram Ltd. Old Bosham, Sussex, England 1978. Hard cover, 387 pages, black and white illustrations and photographs, Other works, Glossary. Review. Bowker notes,page 252, in the preface to Chapter 6 (an account of the five month stay on Tahiti): "There is not the space in this volume to include the entire log for this period, so I have selected those parts which bear upon the ship's mission and upon the mutiny to come; and I have included other items which appear to be of particular general and nautical interest." See 1788 William Bligh and James Morrison : Surfriding in Tahiti |
1986 Brash, R. : How Did Sports Begin ? - A Look at the Origins of Man at Play Revised and enlarged edition, Fontana /William Collins Pty Ltd, Sydney, 1986 David McCay Co. Inc., New York 1970 Longman Australia Pty Ltd, 1971 Longmans, Green and Co. Ltd, 1972. Soft cover, 437 pages, black and white plates, Index. Review An expansive account of the origins of various sports, that puts surfing in a global context. The surfing entry, pages 329 to 338, largely relies largely on Finney (1966) for early Polynesian developments. The adoption of surfing by Australians and their enthusiasm for surf life saving is appears to be sourced from Maxwell (1949). An early surfing woodblock print and a photograph of Bondi S.L.S.C., circa 1907 are included in the second section of the black and white plates. |
2010 Brander, Rob : Dr Rip's Essential Beach Book - Everything You Need to Know About Surf, Sand and Rips. UNSW Press University of New South Wales, Sydney NSW 2025, Australia, 2010. Soft cover, 238 pages, colour photographs and illustrations, Acknowledgements, Index. Review A comprehensive, if not exhaustive, book on the beach environment suitable for the general reader. Brander is known for illustrating the nature of rips with the use of "harmless purple dye" (pages 122-125), a method of observing the motion of water initially suggested by Leonardo da Vinci in the 16th century. Regrettably, How to Measure Wave Height, pages 42-43, does not acknowledge Willard Bascom's definitive method presented in his seminal work on wave research, Waves and Beaches (1964). See Appendix: How to Measure Waves. For an in-depth analysis of sand, see Michael Welland's Sand - The Never-Ending Story (2009).

1996 Brawley, Sean : Beach Beyond - A History of the Palm Beach Surf Club 1921 - 1996 University of New South Wales Press Ltd. Sydney 2052 1996 Hard cover, 300 pages, black and white photographs, Endnotes, Appendicies. Review Excellent detailed history of a Sydney surf life saving club that has strong ties to surfboard history. Especially note 'Surfboards, Surfoplanes and Skis' pages 54 - 61, 'Boats and Boltar' pages 139 - 151 and 'The Malibu Era' pages 151 - 160. Several other photographs in other sections are of interest and the Endnotes and Appendicies are extensive. Expertly researched and with a fine balance between recording the facts and personal anedotes. Sean Brawley followed this with a history of the Bondi SBLSC in 2007, see below. Also see: Early Pittwater Surfers And Surfing: Alrema Becke - threads collected and collated by A J Guesdon, 2017 http://www.pittwateronlinenews.com/Early-Pittwater-Surfers-Alrema-Becke-Palm-Beach.php |
1997 Brimner, Larry Dane Surfing Franklin-Watts A Division of Crlier Publishing, New York. 1997 Hard cover, 64 pages, 19 colour photographs, 1black and white photograph, Publications and Organisations, Internet Resources, Index. Photographs by Peter Sterling. Review Basic juvenile introductory How -To book with well selected photographs of unknown or uncredited surfers. History section incorrectly credits Faye Baird Fraser, San Diego California in 1925, as the first documented female boardrider (pages 13 to 15) - see Isobel Letham in Duke 1914 |
2004 Brisick, Jamie : Have board, Will Travel - A Definitive History of Surf, Skate, and Snow. HarperCollins Publishers 10 East 53rd Street New York. NY 10022. 2004. Soft cover, 195 pages, extensive colour and black and white photographs, Acknowledgements, Credits, Index. Review Although an origininal combination linking the histories of three board sports, the book can hardly be described as "definitve". The surfing section has a considerable number of historical errors, which casts some doubt on the validity of the other sections. There are also conceptual problems - "Unlike surfing, skateboarding does have a utilitarian purpose." (page 18) ignores the early use of surfboards for transport by Polynesians. See #500. Like some other commentators, Brisicks ignores the direct influence of windsurfing (another Board sport?) on the development of tow-in surfing. Of most interest is the revelation that snowboard design dates back to 1939 - the Wunderlund board, page 159. |
2015 Brisick, Jamie : Becoming Westerly The transformation of surfing champion Peter Drouyn into Westerly Windina Allen & Unwin, February 2015. Soft cover, 344 pages, colour and black and white plates, Acknowledgements, Credits, Index. Review. While Jamie Brisick had devoted immense time and resources in telling the story of Westerly, it is unfortunate that a similar effort was not accorded to Peter. In the account of the surfing career of Peter Drouyn there are numerous errors and although these are mostly minor, for anyone already familiar with this period of surfing history they are annoying and reflect on the author's authority. It is not the case that Duke Kahanamoku introduced board riding to Australia and Isabel Letham became Australia's first surfer; Peter's first board, a second-hand balsa Malibu from a shaper who moved up from the the Gold Coast from Sydney, was probably Joe Larkin, less likely Roger 'Duck' Keiran; Keith Paull, not Paul; McTavish did not compete at the 1966 World contest in California (he was unable to enter the US because of his conviction for illegal entry circa 1963); Magic Sam ? ... Nat did write that Sam was magic, but he/she was only ever Sam. Many of Westerly's interpretations of events go unchallenged, for example after his victory NSW surfers started trickling up to Queensland ... now people respected Queensland surfing and Drouyn's role in prompting Nat and McTavish in their development of performance surfing and shorter boards. It is unclear if the claim, two consecutive junior titles was a monster feat, is that of Westerly or Jamie. Regardless, given the earlier dominance of Farrelly, and then Nat, in the junior ranks this was unlikely to be considered particularly remarkable at the time, unlike the four connective junior titles of Victoria's Wayne Lynch, 1967-1970. Randy Rarrick was probably misquoted in referring to the sand dunes of Taree (page 63). Although he did attend the world contest at Puerto Rico in 1968, Peter Drouyn contracted pleurisy on the flight (page (68), but it is unclear if he did not compete or his performance was impeded. |
1998
Broeze, Frank : Island Nation - A history of Australians and the sea. Allen and Unwin 9 Atchinson Street, St. Leonards, NSW 2065 Review Drawing an alternate perspective to the traditional reading of Australian history, influenced by Geoffrey Blainey's The Tryanny of Distance (1966), Broeze largely concentrates on the importance of coastal and international shipping to the development of the nation. Aboriginal and European settlement is covered in chapter 1, coastal exploration in chapter 4, and cultural response (including surf lifesaving and surf riding) in chapter 8. Some of Broeze's account has been adjusted by subsequent research, for example the"role" of William Gocher in popularizing daylight swimmimg (page242), and in some places his analysis is less than accurate, no doubt a disadvantage when adopting such a broad perspective. For an expanded account of these themes, see: Matsuda, Matt K.: Pacific Worlds - A History of Seas, Peoples and Cultures (2012) For a detailed history of Sydney Harbour, see: Hoskins, Ian: Sydney Harbour - A History (2009) |

Brown, DeSoto : Surfing - Historical Images from the Bishop Museum. Bishop Museum Press 1525 Bernice Street, Honolulu, Hawai'i 96817 www.bishopmuseumpress.org/press Review Fifty percent of the photographs are probably previously unpublished and many of the others have extended captions with new information. Highly interesting is "A board called Malibu" (my caption) with Richard Boone, Duke and Peter Lawford at Waikiki in the early 1950s, page143. Lawford brought the board to Australia in 1950, see History: 1956. Note: 1. The book should be titled "Historical Photographic Images from the Bishop Museum" as there are none of the early surfing illustrations, for example John Webber's first image of a surfboard in 1779. See surfing images : 1788 to photography 2. 'Duke at Freshwater' (pages134-135) for the first Australian demonstration uses Ablie Thom's well researched, but incorrect, 23 Dec 1914 (actually 24th) and the surfing photograph is Cronulla Beach in February and not Freshwater in January. |
2001 Bryant, Edward : Tsumami - The Underrated Hazard Cambridge University Press, The Pitt Building Trumpington Street, Cambridge, United Kingdom. 2001 Soft cover, 320 pages, 40 black and white photographs, extensive black and white illustrations, diagrams, maps, graphs and tables, References, Index. Review A scienticific analysis of the effects of tusami on coastal landforms, the book includes expert discussion of wave dynamics. The majority of tusami generated landforms examined are Australian locations, although the book fully covers tusami disasters through history and around the world. Special note : the Preface comments of the use of online references .... Internet... material may not be readily available because the addresses have changed or because of the lack of an archival tradition for this new resource medium. - page XXV. This is a major headache for Internet researchers, and echoes advice on the Web LInks page... If you find something that is really important to you, then either save it digitally or print it out. There is no guarantee that it will be there the next time you look. |
1998 Brystrom, Chris : The Glide – Longboarding and the Renaissance of Modern Surfing Duranbah Press (Publisher). Wakefield Press (Distributors) Box 2266, Kent Town, South Australia 1998 Hard cover, soft cover, 128 pages, 191 colour photographs / sequences, 41 b/w photographs, 49 illustrations. Review Stylishly produced with excellent photograghy, this work has a strong U.S. perspective. Historical chapters (Bob Cooper, Peter Troy and Pat Curren) are very interesting. ‘Twenty Surfers’, like most attempts at ranking, is strictly subjective (see Cassidy, 1983). ‘Water Women’ is a worthy inclusion. ‘Art Forms – Art / Poetry / Music / Photography’ is almost exclusively American – four pages devoted to surf poetry is four pages too many. If it is the intention of the author to prove or demonstrate a thesis (‘The Renaissance of Modern Surfing’), then the result is less than satisfactory |
