Cecil Colwin has produced an encyclopedia of information about competitive swimming, and he has presented it in such a readable format that anyone interested in the sport will find challenging ideas, well-documented and engagingly illustrated, on almost every page. The book is a treasure!
excellent compendium of history, theory, and style
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 28 years ago
this may be by far one of the most in depth volumes on swimming available. It not only covers strokes, but history of them, evolution, training tips, science & research and more! there is so much information in here, and so well documented, it would take weeks to assimilate it all. highly recommended... and i give it a 9 only because there is no suc thing is a 10
