New Haven, CT: Yale University Press, 1950. Cloth. Very Good +/Very Good -. The 1950 1st edition of this charming instructional on swimming, authored by the head swimming coach at Yale and published by Yale University Press. Tight and VG+ (just a touch of soiling to the rear panel) in a bright, price-clipped, VG- example of the pictorial dustjacket, with roughly 1/4 of the rear panel missing. Still though, quite presentable. Octavo, hundreds of black-and-white photos supplementing Coach Kiphuth's text.
