A history of one of the world’s premier rowing regattas

This is the story of the people who turned a Cold War idea into an enduring, world-renowned rowing event.

This book is about the athletes, colorful characters, and brilliant people the Windermere Cup has featured every first Saturday in May since 1987. Through interviews, original documents and pages upon pages of breathtaking photographs, author Gregg Bell captures this event’s more than 30 remarkable years, its spirit and its soul.
