Why We Swim : Tsui, Bonnie: desertcart.ae: Books Review: This book is a wonderful read for anyone who loves water! I read Bonnie Tsui's book in a few days and thoroughly enjoyed the mix of history, science and personal stories. Tsui does a great job capturing the love and respect that swimmers have for water. As I read the book I felt that Tsui really understands why swimmers - myself included - will wake up early and dive into cold pools or open water to fulfill a deep longing and need. I highly recommend this book to anyone looking for an entertaining yet deeply informative read about the human connection to water. Review: Inspiring and very interesting

An inspirational read for swimmers or those recovering or not recovering well from injury or illness. Can be picked up in partial reads. I particularly enjoyed learning about the relationship and importance of swimming to societies worldwide.
