Title: | Review of Robin Poke, 'Peter Antonie: Out of His Shell - A Biography of Australian Rowing's Unsung Hero', Walla Walla Press, Sydney, 2007, pp. v + 284, pb, $39.95 | Contributor(s): | Parker, Claire (author) | Publication Date: | 2007 | Handle Link: | https://hdl.handle.net/1959.11/12906 | Abstract: | Peter Antonie was and remains an 'oarsman's' oarsman, an athlete who gained the respect not only of Australian rower's but rowers worldwide. This was exemplified when Antonie was awarded, in 2003, the Thomas Keller Medal for rowing - the highest honour in world rowing. ... That Peter Antonie's rowing career was exceptional is not in doubt. His career may not have been the longest in world rowing or, as this book superbly details, the most illustrious in terms of gold medals won. The exceptional quality of Peter Antonie was his versatility. | Publication Type: | Review | Source of Publication: | Sporting Traditions, 24(1-2), p. 105-106 | Publisher: | Australian Society for Sports History | Place of Publication: | Australia | ISSN: | 0813-2577 | Fields of Research (FoR) 2008: | 210399 Historical Studies not elsewhere classified 210303 Australian History (excl Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander History) |
