The author of this little volume originally compiled the material at the request of the late James E. Sullivan, with whom he was associated in Amateur Athletic Union affairs for a great many years and therefore naturally takes a more than passing interest in the book. With the great advance that has been manifested in swimming, it became necessary to make a thorough revision of the entire matter, at the same time adding a new chapter in life-saving methods which should prove invaluable.
