So this is surfing in Britain, I told myself as I grumpily walked up a slope of wet rocks and wispy beach grass, trying to keep a foothold as rain and wind both tried their utmost to send me skidding back down to the freezing beach below. Tom Anderson has always loved surfing - anywhere except the UK. But a chance encounter leads him to a series of adventures on home surf…As he visits the popular haunts and secret gems of British surfing he meets the Christians who pray for waves (and get them), loses a competition to a non-existent surfer, is nearly drowned in the River Severn and has a watery encounter with a pedigree sheep. All this rekindles his love affair with the freezing fun that is surfing the North Atlantic. This title includes: national radio and newspaper interviews, features and reviews; extensive coverage in surfing, sport, travel and youth media (including websites and blogs) as well as regional coverage in Wales and South West. The author writes for the surfing press and has a big following. His previous book has been entered for a major Welsh book prize, if it is shortlisted, it will receive much publicity.
