Book excerpt: "Some Like It Cold chronicles the true story of twin brothers Lee and Larry Williams, who even as teenagers never considered surfing to be just a hobby, but rather a lifestyle. Over the next six decades, they rode the gnarliest waves despite living nearly 2,000 miles away from any ocean. To overcome the obstacles of being born and raised in Sheboygan, Wisconsin, the Williams boys adapted to the chilling realities of surfing in the freshwaters of the Great Lakes when bringing their dreams and longboards to the shores of Lake Michigan. Their combined passion and ingenuity has since transformed their hometown into "The Malibu of the Midwest." This new edition of Bill Povletich's previously published 2010 will include a new chapter in the "Fourth Wave" section, updating Lee and Larry Williams' story to the present"--
