Featuring stunning color photographs, Rowing Blazers is a visual feast, transporting readers to the highly atmospheric boathouses, campuses, and team rooms of clubs around the world. This revised edition features some 40 additional clubs, including the University of Tokyo; the Shanghai Rowing Club; Row New York, a nonprofit organization stressing academic achievement as well as rowing prowess; and Manley Career Academy High School in Chicago, the first all-Black high school rowing team in the US.
