Reviews for Survival Swimming: Swimming Training for Escape and Survival

For years I have been afraid of diving in. Swimming has always been something that I wanted to take on. However, I was scared that it would be the end of me if I took myself on the deep end. What Fury shares in this book has changed my perspective. Now I can't stay out of the water. There are truly some good techniques presented in this book. It is a smooth read as well that can relate to those who are just starting out. Thank you! Jerther This book is really well written and very helpful! Essential for swimmers in general, not only pros!!. Totally recommended. Evelyn
