This is a marvellous achievement and a great contribution towards making open water swimming accepted in the UK as, indeed it is everywhere else in the world. Congratulations to Kate for flowing (sorry..) text and to Dominick for some stunning photography
Attractive and useful, but more info would help This is a gorgeous, well-written and well-presented book.

Very good, needs more info though Very good, but "arty" For us non-natives, more maps and landmarks would be helpful. Nice photos! Driving instructions, opening times, and other resources (bathing house, tea rooms) would have made this book perfect. I did enjoy the Malham Tarn swim, but had trouble finding the place.
