Skis are a familiar attribute of winter recreation. But they were not invented for entertainment at all. The invention of skis was a matter of survival in northern lands, for without them you cannot catch prey and feed your family....

What types of skiing sports are there? Readers will find answers to these and many other questions in the pages of this book.
