Rowing Blazers: Revised Edition

Description

Jack Carlson published the first edition of this book ten years ago, as well as launching a successful brand of rowing blazers on the back of it in 2017. The book itself was originally intended purely for the rowing community, who love, when they are not pulling oars on rivers around the world, poring over the colourful myths, rituals, stripes, badges and legendary races associated with their blazers. But once Ralph Lauren got behind the book, it instantly reached a wider audience due to the startling nature and elegance of many of the rowing blazers featured therein. The revised edition of the book features many new clubs and teams that were not in the original edition, from the historic Shanghai Rowing Club in China to Tigre Boat Club in Argentina; Nassau Rowing Club in the Bahamas to Partez Rowing Club in Japan. The book also features Row New York and London’s Fulham Reach Boat Club, along with Olympic champions from Great Britain, New Zealand, Germany, the United States and South Africa. This is a brand-new copy in mint condition.
