The Outdoor Swimmers’ Handbook by Kate Rew

For the love of cold water, wild places and the warmth that follows.

The Outdoor Swimmer's Handbook is a beautiful collection of wisdom, experience and stories gathered over 16 years of swimming adventures. From understanding rivers, lakes and seas to embracing the elements and learning what cold water does to the body, it's an invitation to explore, learn and find your own way in the water.

And when the swim is done, there's nothing quite like warming cold hands around a mug of hot chocolate.
