5.0 out of 5 stars
Great book on snowshoeing,
By
This review is from: The Essential Snowshoer: A Step-by-Step Guide (Paperback)
This book is both entertaining and technical. Zwosta conveys her love of the outdoors, often with lyrical beauty. At the same time she provides the basics needed to get started with snowshoeing. Chapters cover the essentials of, types and uses of snowshoes, preparing for a trip and safety measures. Anecdotes throughout the book add additional perspectives to the subject. If you want to get started in snowshoeing, this is the book. Beware though, Zwosta's enthusiasm is catching. You may be tempted after a few pages to just go out and get started. Read the whole book. There's lots of good information.

4.0 out of 5 stars
One of the better MODERN snowshoe books.,
By Jerry (Idaho) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Essential Snowshoer: A Step-by-Step Guide (Paperback)
A good book with an accurate introduction to the history of snowshoes. The book explains accurately the difference between modern solid-deck snowshoes and traditional webbed deck designs, that being floatation. The tradition wooden snowshoes have greater floatation. This is information not clearly explained in other books, such as the Trailside Series. I would recommend this book.
