Reef Madness
« on: June 30, 2015, 08:00:12 PM »
Has anybody read Barbarian Days, William Finnegan's new surf memoir? Nice profile of him (he's a journalist) in the July issue of Los Angeles magazine (no link yet that I could find).

Oh, just checked on Amazon and it's not out until July 21. Sounds like it will be a good read.

Thanks for the tip about his New Yorker article. The two from 1992 (Playing Doc's Games) were good, too.
