From the archive

A Lifetime in the Boat
Jim Edmonds, from Pan Am gold to Olympic torch runner 006, told through his family's own photographs.

Blood Sport
Poisoned rivals, sawn boats, and 60,000 on the riverbank. When rowing was the dirtiest game in America.

They Raced Anyway
It took until 1976 for women's rowing to reach the Olympics. Betty Craig and Susan Antoft rowed through that door.
