Perfect for me

I am an absolute beginner at cross country and have no downhill experience. Through a stroke of good luck my second lesson was from Paul Petersen, one of the authors of this book. His ability to teach is extraordinary and his enthusiasm is contagious. Those qualities are evident in the pages of the book. It is perfect for me because I can use the book to review everything he taught. Other reviewers question the book's usefulness for the non-beginner; I don't have the expertise to comment on that, but if you are just learning this awesome sport I think this book should be required reading.

Good Beginning

I am finding this book an excellent one for someone who has been away from the sport for years, having been a novice in the past. Have just recently decided to renew this interest and the book is providing good guidelines for me.

The Essential Cross-Country Skier: A Step-By-Step Guide

I'm a beginning cross-country skier and former Valley Girl with no downhill experience and found this book to be helpful. The book covers choosing equipment, getting started and gives good tips on technique. I haven't purchased any other books on cross-country skiing but this one seems to be a valuable resource.
