Surfing: Women of the Waves

by Linda Chase Author

Since it became entrenched as a counterculture sport in the 1960s, the sport and lifestyle of surfing has been throroughly and unapologetically masculine in its presentations in popular culture and media. This book disproves this stereotype by highlighting the generations of amazing women who have left their mark on surfing. From early champions in the 1950s and 1960s to contemporary world champions, see how women of all skill levels have taken their place among the great and notable surfers of the world.
