Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from At Home in the Water: Swimming, Diving, Life Saving, Water Sports, Natatoriums In 1913, according to the United States census statistics, over seven thousand persons lost their lives through accidental drowning. It is a strange fact that many who are daily exposed to danger from drowning do not know how to swim. This is true of lumbermen, of men in the navy, of many who are members of crews on ships and boats. It is not underestimating the facts to say that fully twenty-five percent of all young men and boys in the United States over twelve years of age do not know how to swim, and the percentage is, of course, much larger when applied to both sexes and to all ages. Every one should know how to swim, for at least three reasons: It is a splendid form of exercise, judged from the standpoint of physiology, resulting in improved health accompanied by ease and grace of carriage; it imparts self-reliance and courage, which become elements in one's character, increasing one's power both for good and against evil; and finally it may prove the means of saving life.

Download or read book Why We Swim written by Bonnie Tsui and published by Algonquin Books. This book was released on 2021-04-13 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Time Magazine Must-Read Book of 2020 A Best Book of the Season: BuzzFeed * Bustle * San Francisco Chronicle A Best Book of the Year: NPR's Book Concierge * Washington Independent Review of Books “A fascinating and beautifully written love letter to water. I was enchanted by this book." —Rebecca Skloot, bestselling author of The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks An immersive, unforgettable, and eye-opening perspective on swimming—and on human behavior itself. We swim in freezing Arctic waters and piranha-infested rivers to test our limits. We swim for pleasure, for exercise, for healing. But humans, unlike other animals that are drawn to water, are not natural-born swimmers. We must be taught. Our evolutionary ancestors learned for survival; now, in the twenty-first century, swimming is one of the most popular activities in the world. Why We Swim is propelled by stories of Olympic champions, a Baghdad swim club that meets in Saddam Hussein’s palace pool, modern-day Japanese samurai swimmers, and even an Icelandic fisherman who improbably survives a wintry six-hour swim after a shipwreck. New York Times contributor Bonnie Tsui, a swimmer herself, dives into the deep, from the San Francisco Bay to the South China Sea, investigating what it is about water that seduces us, despite its dangers, and why we come back to it again and again.
