Synopsis
Excerpt from Training, in Theory and Practice
Course of Training for the several kinds of boat races practised at the university, giving detailed directions for Exercise, Diet, Bathing, &c., from day to day for the whole course laid down; and also some remarks on the disputed question of the dangers of boat-racing to University crews.
A valuable paper in the Appendix on the subject of the Sliding Seat, contributed by the Rev. T. H. T. Hopkins, m.a., Magdalen College, Oxford, will be read with interest by rowing men. The illustrations shewing the difference in action and position of the stroke in rowing with the fixed and sliding seats, are taken from photographs from the life, and drawn on wood by Mr. A. Macdonald of the University School of Art.
I have also to tender my sincere thanks to the Press for the invaluable assistance which it has given me in this work.
