A fascinating, in-depth look at the history of competitive swimming
and the people and moments that have defined the sport. From the
first modern Olympic Games to the present, Below the Surface: The
History of Competitive Swimming covers all the greatest moments,
top rivalries, legendary swimmers, and biggest controversies in
swimming history. It features athletes like Michael Phelps and
Katie Ledecky, who have elevated the sport to an unprecedented
level, and individual performances that are groundbreaking and
awe-inspiring, such as Australian Fanny Durack becoming the first
female Olympic gold medalist in 1912 and Jason Lezak leading the US
to a come-from-behind victory in the 400 freestyle relay at the
2008 Olympics. While controversies such as doping and the advent of
tech suits have troubled the sport, a new generation of athletes
have produced fresh enthusiasm for competitive swimming. Below the
Surface offers little-known stories, unique insight, and a detailed
history of a great sport with a remarkable past and an exciting
future.
