The Compleat Dr. Rowing

The Compleat Dr. Rowing is a collection of the greatest hits from the popular Ask Dr. Rowing column in the Independent Rowing News. The Dr. answers questions pertaining to all things rowing, from "Did all of the members of that Japanese eight that rowed so high really die?" to "Why do oarsmen produce only daughters?" The Doctor's own particular brand of humor blends with factual and historical research.

A most entertaining collection of letters to, and answers from, Dr. Rowing, who can research and answer any question pertaining to boats & oars. As a novice rower I appreciate both the information and the humor with which it is delivered.

Must-read for rowers. Totally hilarious. Informative. Amusing. Sarcastic. Silly.

... for non-rowers? It probably would only hit the "kind of funny" level.
