A most entertaining collection of letters to, and answers from, Dr. Rowing, who can research and answer any question pertaining to boats & oars. As a novice rower I appreciate both the information and the humor with which it is delivered.

Must-read for rowers. Totally hilarious. Informative. Amusing. Sarcastic. Silly.
... for non-rowers? It probably would only hit the "kind of funny" level.
