Used : True Blue: The Story of the Oxford Boat Race Mutiny
It is not easy to explain to anyone what the big attraction of rowing is, and this book mostly succeeds (see also The Amateurs). The author's (or at least Topolski's) passion for the big race is communicated well, and the book is full of entertaining anecdotes about previous Boat Race legends.

However, given that this claims to be a true story, the characters have an unsatisfying comic-book feel about them, and are barely recognisable from their real-life equivalents. The action is full of noticeable omissions in the interest of a nice straightforward story. There are heroic goodies and dastardly baddies, and the simmering anti-Americanism that is never far beneath the surface of much English journalism shines through.
