YA-- An introduction to the sport, particularly for novices. Paduda writes from the point of view of an experienced coach, beginning with the basics, building on them, then further refining them for more able practitioners. The techniques are illustrated with many photographs and comments. Included are sample workouts, drills, and advice about choosing the correct rowing shell. Tuesday How can it be, that in all of the excellent reviews of David Wiesner's June 29, 1999 (Clarion, 1992; Nov., p. 81), no one has yet mentioned that June 29, 1999 is a Tuesday!!?? JAN DE SIREY Hennepin County LibraryMinnetonka, MNLearn to Be the Master Student I believe your reviewer did not understand the purpose of our book, Learn to Be the Master Student (Maydale, 1992; Nov., p. 131), and I take exception to several of her comments.
