This is a good introductory book for people interested in working on their figure skating skills. While I personally find it easier to learn from another person, the illustrations in this book clearly show how to do simple maneuvers such as stroking, turns and crossovers. I like the drills and common errors and how to correct them. A good complement to lessons and regular practice.
