Summary: For frisbee collectors only
Review: Don't be fooled by the title, this is not the complete book of frisbee. Ultimate only rates a couple of pages, for starters. There is nothing to speak of on throwing technique. It is not particularly well edited, either - many assertions and heresay have slipped through the net. Lots of nice pictures of collectable discs, if that's what you're into. A bit of a disappointment given the dearth of books-in-print about throwing technique and ultimate.

Summary: Price Guide lacking current collectable prices(1998)
Review: If you're buying this book as a priceguide to old or collectable frisbees, you should know this. Since the advent of online auctioning after 1998, many more frisbees have come out of the closet. Therefore, the priceguide part of the book is woefully out of date. Most collectable Frisbee prices as stated in the book are overvalued by 30-60%. I hope a revision of this book is printed soon.

Summary: Price Guide lacking current collectable prices(1998)
Review: There have been books detailing Frisbee history in the past, and this books adds a great deal to the legends and the lore.But it is also the first book to actually catalog piles of plastic into a colorful compendium for you to read, rate and review. Ever wonder what that old flying disc in the garage was really worth? Want to know how much money your dog REALLY consumed the last time he chomped on a Frisbee? Now you can find out in the Complete Book of Frisbee! Lots of fun for old-timers to read, and a colorful introduction to the history for those just getting started. PS: It's also a great gift for your Frisbee flipping friends...I've already given away four copies.

Summary: Outstanding Guide, Historically Significant
Review: This book is a must for anyone associated with or interested in Frisbees, golf discs and Frisbie Pie Tins. Not only does it provide a guide for determining value of many highly collectible discs, it's entertaining, well-written, and well-designed. A collector's item in its own right and I highly recommend.
