  “This is one of the best nonfiction books that I have ever read. This may just be because I am a swimmer and I really appreciate the sport. The story is about a well respected and successful swim club in California. In the story it talks about the journey of a group of talented young men and their dream of the Olympics. They all have similar goals, and work very. It was easily for me to relate to as an athlete because the book talked a lot about breakthroughs, perseverance, working hard and acheiveing your goals. The book does a good job of showing the intensity and life style of competitive swimming. One of my favorites. ”
