Skate Talk : Figure Skating in the Words of the Stars by Steve Milton (1998, Trade Paperback). Some wear along edges and corners of the cover. Light staining on outer pages. See photos.
From Jayne Torvill and Christopher Dean to Shae-Lynn Bourne and Victor Kraatz, the great names of figure skating offer a behind-the-scenes look at one of North America`s most popular sports. The first-hand testimony of athletes, coaches, choreographers, administrators and reporters gives us an insider`s look at the past, present and future of the sport - and at the people who make the sport great. From choreographer Marina Zoueva remembering the late Sergei Grinkov to Elizateth Manley reliving her Olympic medal-winning performance, SkateTalk chronicles the sport as no other book has ever done. It is by turns heart-rending and poignant, and uplifting and inspirational.
