This is the Bible of telemark technique, period. As an expert skier turned free-heeler, I became competent in telemark through hundreds of days of trial and error. Reading this book put together the pieces for me (that hundreds of days could not) and enhanced my form well beyond what I could have ever expected from reading a book on skiing. I could not possibly recommend this book more highly to anyone interested in telemark. You MUST read this!
