Maggiori informazioni sul libro

The book delves into the significant impact of swimming professors on the evolution of swimming in nineteenth-century England, particularly in promoting participation among women. It highlights the contributions of female exhibitors and natationists, detailing their influence on women's swimming. The narrative also explores the emergence of new swimming baths and the formation of amateur clubs, which ultimately marginalized professors, many of whom found success abroad. The authors emphasize that the contributions of these individuals are vital to understanding the foundations of modern sport, often overshadowed by amateur organizations.
