Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

Urban Swimmers is the second in the series of East London Photo Stories by Hoxton Mini Press. Each book in the series is about Hackney and its surroundings - one of the capital's most rich and diverse areas - and features the work of both emerging and established photographers. Madeleine Waller is a local East London Photographer whose work has been exhibited at the National Portrait Gallery. The book, which includes quotes taken from interviews with the swimmers, gives a touching and humorous insight into the world of those who escape the city to swim in conditions.
