Autor knihy Petr Kubka patřil v devadesátých letech mezi výrazné televizní tváře, například byl zpravodajem v balkánských zemích. V posledních letech se z televizí vytratil, o to aktivněji se však věnuje sportu a psaní reportáží ze svých cest po horách. Jeho největším hobby je totiž lyžování. Pro lyžařské expedice -a reportáže z nich - si vybírá hlavně atypické destinace. Se svou ženou, bývalou špičkovou sjezdařkou,objíždí lyžařské rezorty na nejrůznějších exotických místech. S lyžemi takto navštívil nejen Kanadu,USA včetně Aljašky, Japonsko, Nepál či Chile a Argentinu, ale i země obecně vnímané jako„nelyžařské“ jako Irán, Kazachstán, Uzbekistán či Indii. Kniha jistě zaujme každého dobrodružněji založeného lyžaře.
