With five medals at the 2014 Sochi Games, the U.S. Ski Team is now a powerhouse in the edgy sport of downhill racing. Here is the definitive portrait of this golden generation of American skiers. In The Fall Line, award-winning journalist Nathaniel Vinton pairs a fast-paced narrative of the team s most eventful winter with an intimate depiction of its stars, including Bode Miller, Lindsey Vonn, Julia Mancuso, and Ted Ligety. Drawing on more than a decade of careful reporting, The Fall Line opens up the entire swashbuckling world of downhill skiing its ancient roots in the Alps, the million-dollar stakes, and the career-ending crashes. It is a hair-raising account of what a set of former underdogs survived in order to deliver a historic performance on their sport s biggest stage. The Fall Line delivers the thrill of alpine racing alongside a panoramic view of the sport s past, present, and future."
