Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Swimming Simplified The purpose of this text book is to simplify the learning and teaching of swimming from a scientific point of view. Our further objective has been to arrange a series of lessons in their logical progression to meet the demands of schools, playgrounds, clubs, and aquatic centers. The text has been graduated to serve the needs of beginners and swimmers, and a special section upon the method of procedure for mass instruction and class management has been arranged for teachers of swimming. We have avoided a detailed and technical analysis of all swimming strokes, featuring only the fundamental ones necessary in the logical progression of swimming. A lengthy dissertation might be written regarding the values of swimming. However, it is sufficient to state that it is one of the most popular and pleasurable of athletic activities; from a physiological standpoint it is one of the most healthful exercises for developing the body symmetrically; swimming is necessary from a utilitarian standpoint because it serves as a means of saving life, A swimming and life-saving test should be one of the graduation requirements in every institution of learning from the elementary through the advanced. Instruction should not be limited to university students, but it is imperative that the youth receive training in swimming and in life-saving. The leading educators, directors of physical education, aquatic authorities, and members of the medical profession realize that in the near future this demand must be met. This work is truly applied physical education. The following are a few of the endorsements on "Swimming Simplified" received from some of the leading educators and swimming authorities: "In my opinion your book deals with the subject in a most scientific and thorough manner. In learning to swim it is especially important that the novice gain confidence at the start. Proper control of the respiration and balance are essential to confidence in the water. Your plan for preliminary instruction in these matters through dry land and other drills and your careful attention to the laws of natural progression are indicative of the scientific study you have made of this sport. Allow me to congratulate you and your sister and wish you the success you deserve in getting your book before the public."
