TOM BLAKE:
The Uncommon Journey of a Pioneer Waterman
This
book is the definitive biography of Tom Blake -- the man who invented
the surfboard fin, the hollow board, sailboard and the arch-typical surfer
lifestyle (among many other accomplishments). Long out-of-print, it is rated
with 5 stars on Amazon.com.
Produced by Spencer B. Croul and co-authored by
Gary Lynch and myself (Malcolm Gault-Williams), TOM BLAKE: The Uncommon Journey of a Pioneer Waterman was
originally published in 2001. Three thousand copies were printed; each book is a
256-page hardcover, special boxed collector’s edition, featuring over 300
images.
At
Amazon.com, there are still various editions available at prices ranging from $40-225. To order, go to Amazon Smile, HERE.
I’m
proud of all my writings on surf history and I thank all of you who have read
some of them and who continue to do so. TOM
BLAKE: The Uncommon Journey of a Pioneer Waterman is certainly my crowning achievement to-date.
