| Publisher Description: Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. This book serves as a detailed account of all aspects of the competitive rowing world, with special reference to the anatomy of the stroke, the mechanics of the shell, and a complete list of rowing terms. From sweep style to stroke style, adaptive to lightweight, this guide provides everything a beginner or experienced rower needs to know about the sport of rowing. This book also addresses the premier rowing international competitions, including Head of the Charles, The Boat Race, The Summer Olympics, The World Championships, and the NCAA Championships. Project Webster represents a new publishing paradigm, allowing disparate content sources to be curated into cohesive, relevant, and informative books. To date, this content has been curated from Wikipedia articles and images under Creative Commons licensing, although as Project Webster continues to increase in scope and dimension, more licensed and public domain content is being added. We believe books such as this represent a new and exciting lexicon in the sharing of human knowledge. |
