Life is Worth Swimming Author: Murray Rose

ISBN: 9780987282064 Format: Hardcover Number Of Pages: 224 Published: 8 November 2016 Country of Publication: AU Description: Life is Worth Swimming is an intimate glimpse into the personal journey of Australian swimming icon Murray Rose-his life, his stories and his innermost thoughts.

Throughout the book, enchanting images-some nostalgic, some recent and many from his private collection-document his life, highlight his words and bring the events described into sharp focus. Those who lived through the "golden era of swimming" will delight in re-visiting Australia's astonishing achievements and revel in the inside stories-including stories of some highly controversial moments-which could only be shared by someone who was there. Others, who have only heard about this magical era, will discover one of Australia's greatest sporting heroes-while anyone with a philosophical bent, or anyone who wonders what makes an athlete tick, will find deeper meaning in Murray's words.

Commenting on sport, focus, philosophy and family, this highly engaging and accessible book provides insight and inspiration not only for athletes, but also for anyone who has ever pondered life's important questions.
