I just got Total immersion book yesterday.
Have read part 1 of the book and just started doing the drills today.
It seems an excallent way to swim and definatly will improve my f/s.
But i'm a bit weary because it's so comercail. so my question is,
Is Total immersion as good a way to swim as it makes out?
or is it the best way to learn how to swim?
Are there better books out there that teach you how to swim well(properly)?
Hope that makes sense

You would understand this if you were to try what I described.
Like instead of being born in a country, try to force the conditions to be in demand on merit in that country.
Ion, if you only knew.
My wife has no grandfather because he was killed in a Nazi death camp in 1945. My mother in law and her mother came to the US after escaping from Hungary and found their way to the US eventually. They fought tooth and nail to get where they are today. Actually my wife's grandmother passed away some years back and my mother in law is now a succesful attorney.
My grandmother married my grandfather in WWII when he was stationed in Monte Cassino, Italy from 1944-1945. She immigrated to this country and learned a whole new way of life.
None of the people I mentioned are swimmers but they all have a great deal of modesty (that means a lack of pretentiousness just so you know)...I never hear them bragging or complaining about how rough they have had it. Especially my mother in law, she never knew her father, she only knew of him. My wifes grandmother saw more bloodshed and brutality on innocent women, children, and men than anybody should ever have to see. All of these women have raised families, owned homes, and had wonderful lives with family and friends that they love.
You might think your life sucks but you have no idea how bad it can get.
