Very good rowing readBy CustomerGood books on rowing are few and far between. Halberstamrsquo;s the Amateurs and Topolski's True Blue being notable exceptions. If you like autobiographies Pinsent's and Foster's are both good. Murray and Bond's new book is on par with the latter two and very much deserves five stars.It's an engaging read that moves along at a decent pace and does an insightful job of showing the reader the life (including challenges) of a an elite endurance athlete.Both men come across as interesting characters, albeit with very different personalities and it is fascinating to see how together they overcame some fairly substantial disappointments to form what is arguably the greatest rowing crew of all time.The relationships with their various coaches are also covered and it is interesting to see how they achieved the results they did under the different styles.Two very minor criticisms. The finals chapters were written shortly after the Rio final and as such don't provide much in the way of retrospective observation, and as a rowing fan it would have been really interesting to have seen a table of their 2k erg times through the years. Small points though in what is a very good book.1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. An excellent study in great teamwork and unrelenting hard workBy John R. Blackburn Jr.So Eric and Hamish, having just won their second pair of Olympic gold medals in Rio, have just released a biography about their lives. Given the timing, I really wasn't expecting much. But this is really an excellent book, very well written and very compelling in the detailed story that it tells. These supremely talented rowers have managed to be so successful as a pair for a number of reasons, in no small part due to their unrelenting commitment to practicing and perfecting their techniques and endurance, day after day, year after year.1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Great read and example for aspiring rowersBy @Boston_ScullerRare insights into two remarkable athletes' careers.... beyond talent the importance of goals, commitment, innovating, adapting, setbacks, institutional +/-, and having family/friends to get through it all. Worth the read for anyone thinking about doing something audacious. A gritty story of commitment, self-discovery and the outer limits of human endurance.Hamish Bond and Eric Murray's domination of world rowing is legendary. Double Olympic champions, world record holders and the winners of six World Championship titles in the coxless pair, they have been at the pinnacle of their sport since they captured their first title together in 2009. The Kiwi Pair shares the story of Bond and Murray's unique partnership. Some would describe them as chalk and cheese, two contrasting personalities who nevertheless bring out the best in each other. Join them as they share the secrets to their success, their extreme training regime, the highs and lows of top level sport, and the extraordinary dedication it takes to be world-beating oarsmen.
