LS v.3: 1930s Contents

Some words about my recently published Volume 3 of LEGENDARY SURFERS:



Volume 3 covers the surfing world of the 1930s and is a continuation of the chronological history I have been working on for the past 18 years. It is a bit of a departure, format-wise, from the previous two volumes. I have switched publishers, from CafePress (still printing Volumes 1 & 2) to Lulu. Visually, I have lessened the emphasis on graphics in favor of text, and reduced the actual font size so that more text could be packed into a smaller space. Also, dimensions of the book are slightly smaller than the previous volumes.

Chapters -- some of which are included in the LEGENDARY SURFERS online collection --  include:

• Prelude to The '30s
• Beginning 1930s
• "Pete" Peterson (1913-1983)
• "Whitey" Harrison (1913-1993)
• Gene "Tarzan" Smith (1911-1986)
• "Doc" Ball (1907-2001)
• Mid-1930s
• Ron "Canoe" Drummond (1907-1996)
• Lesser Known California Surfers
• Mary Ann Hawkins (1919-1993)
• LeRoy "Granny" Grannis (1917-2010)
• E.J. Oshier
• The Late 1930s
• The Closet-Out Set

Volume 3 can be ordered by going to:

LEGENDARY SURFERS Volume 3: The 1930s

The book is discounted by 20%, mostly because I've been able to get more text into fewer pages.

List price was $29.95 (U.S. Dolllars). The discounted price is: $23.96, which will save you $5.99.

Thank You for reading my writings on surf history!
