L’Art de Nager

|


Published in the year 1696 and authored by Thomas Moette, ‘L’Art de Nager‘, a rare early book on swimming, was recently translated in English.

The artwork is magnificent and directly speaks to the sport of open water swimming (rough water swimming) as opposed to swimming in the neat, tranquil, rectangular course in a swimming pool.

C’est le cas de l’Art de Nager démontré par figures, avec des avis pour se baigner utilement, qui est un livre en bon état de conservation et traitant d’un sujet amusant et intéressant. Ce type d’ouvrages est très recherché.
