ABOUT US

Over 25 years ago, Chuck Warner recognized that swimming didn't have many heroes. Those were the days before Michael Phelps and of course Katy Ledecky. America also faced a conundrum of falling behind the world in men's distance swimming. He set out to write the story of when the USA ruled the world of mens distance swimming. He researched and wrote the book "Four Champions, One Gold Medal." You can find it on Amazon for around $2-300.00. Wanting to give kids and families better access to information on swimming, swimmers and coaches, we've launched CHUCKWARNERBOOKS.COM to give the swimming community an easy, affordable source for insightful, aspirational and inspirational stories about the greatest sport in the world.
