4.0 out of 5 stars This Beach Volleyball Book is a Treasure!, September 26, 2008
By 
This review is from: Sands of Time: The History of Beach Volleyball, Vol. 3: 1990-2004 (Paperback)
This last in a series of books by the author on beach volleyball is a treasure with all sorts of details about the US AVP beach volleyball scene through 2004. For an update on all the goings-on in pro beach volleyball in the U.S. since then, I'd also recommend Order On The Court by Tom Burke (2008).

4.0 out of 5 stars Unrivaled Photos, August 13, 2006
This review is from: Sands of Time: The History of Beach Volleyball, Vol. 3: 1990-2004 (Paperback)
In terms of one-of-a-kind photos, this book has it all. I still can't figure out how this guy got his hands on some of these pictures, but I'm glad he did. The only thing that I thought was lacking was any sort of imaginative text, but I guess the series is intended to be more of a beach volleyball "almanac" than the latest John Irving masterpiece.

I grew up playing beach volleyball in the 70's, 80's and 90's in Santa Monica and had the pleasure of being annihilated by some of the main characters (Stoklos, Menges, Lee, Gage, etc.). As a player or even just an afficionado, "The History of Beach Volleyball" (any volume) is a must!
