What are some of the must reads on the subject of swimming? I have read Lynn Cox's and Martin Strel's books. Can anyone recommend another either biographical or technical text?
Thanks and happy holidays!
Four Champions, One Gold Medal by Chuck Warner. It's about Tim Shaw, Bobby Hackett, Brian Goodell and Steve Holland and their training before the 1500 free at the 1976 Montreal Olympics. Warner does a great job telling each athlete's story and you can really sense the excitement when the big race comes (even if you already know the result!).
