It's a digitized book, originally published in England, about figure skating. It's titled "A System of Figure Skating" by H.E. Vandervell and T. Maxwell Witham. (1869)

It focuses mainly on Figures. I thought the section on writing your name on the ice was cool, lol.

Thanks for posting - I don't have time to look at it right now but writing your name on the ice can be a "creative figure" and we plan to have a "creative figures" event in our figures competition this summer.

There is a DVD available called "Figure Eights, the Life Force of Figure Skating."
