DESCRIPTION:
A Customer said Brings You Close To Katia and SOI!!. I thought this was an absolutely fantastic book!!! It really gets you up close and personal with the World's Greatest Skating Tour, and I loved the chapter in tribute to Sergei Grinkov. Lots of terrific pictures from all the programs through the years!! It starts out with the story of how Stars On Ice got started, and tells about the earliest skaters, all the way up to today's performers (like my favourite, Katia Gordeeva). This book is a must-have for any fan of SOI and skating in general. You will definately have to see the show in person, after this book!!!. KatyaBelle@aol.com said Excellent behind-the-scenes look into the BEST of Ice Shows. This book was not very expensive in my opinion. Around $"Excellent behind-the-scenes look into the BEST of Ice Shows" according to KatyaBelle@aol.com. This book was not very expensive in my opinion. Around $20.00, and WELL worth it. The photos are fabulous! Hienz Kluetmeir is a genius with the camera, and many of his famous shots are in the book. It is a VERY good behind-the-scenes look at how this incredible show got started, how it is put together, how difficult the training, and organization is, and how close all of the skaters and crew are. It really IS a big family. There is a WHOLE entire chapter devoted to Gordeeva and Grinkov, and many photos of them, as well as Katia solo, and some of Dasha too. There also is a whole chapter on Scottthe. 0.00, and WELL worth it. The photos are fabulous! Hienz Kluetmeir is a genius with the camera, and many of his famous shots are in the book.

She was rather reluctant when Scott called her and invited her to join the tourand that was back in 1986. Thirteen years and a few hundred shows later, Roz has matured into one of the finest entertainers on the ice. Her departure from the SOI tour after the 1998-99 season was rather sad, but rereading her thoughts and feelings on subjects such as Sergei's death to Scott's cancer and her own shining moments was well worth the money I paid for the book. Roz, I'll miss you when SOI starts the 1999-2000 tour. God bless!. @gower.net) said Excellent work about how Stars On Ice evolved into The Tour!. Reason why I bought the book: Just one.
