437 pages. The story of Bruce Farr and Russell Bower is one of the greatest success stories to come out of Aotearoa New Zealand. Its beginnings were humble enough - suppor tive parents of modest means encouraging their sons. Yet an abundance of wind an d water and rich imagination would soon change that. This is their story : a sto ry of how the intellect, vision and courage of a fisherman's son from Leigh and a solicitor's son from Auckland triumphed over adversity and age-old superstitio ns to change the character of their sport and the shape of speed.
