Tim Foster, 32, is one of Britain's most successful oarsmen - the first to win two successive Wolrd Junior Championship gold medals. He is now chief coach at University of London Boat Club. Rory Ross has been a journalist since graduating from Cambridge where he read history. He is now a freelance contributor to Tatler, the Daily Telegraph, Town & Country (NYC), Forbes (NYC) and ACP (Sydney). He rowed against Steve Redgrave at Marlow Regatta in 1979, and lost. Tim Foster is one of Britain's most technically gifted oarsmen, the first to win two successive World Junior Championship gold medals. He is now chief coach at University of London Boat Club, apprentice coach for the British Olympic rowing team and a broadcaster at the BBC.
'timely and excellent... Foster's pacy account begins with the tension of the final countdown to the Sydney final. But Foster's real purpose is to deliver his insights into the complex web of relationships between himself, his coach and crewmates during what often proved to be a fraught and incident packed four-year period leading up to Sydney.' THE GUARDIAN 'Engrossing... the story of the crew has never been told with such acute sensitivity as in FOUR MEN IN A BOAT... where the book excels is in capturing the atmosphere of the sport and the competition to get into winning crews.' THE TIMES 'This is a great insight into a great story, told with humour and panache.' THE INDEPENDENT
