Olympic Sailor Carol Cronin to Visit The Book Oasis

Just in time for the London Olympics! Olympic sailor Carol Newman Cronin will be visiting the Book Oasis this week.

Just in time for the London Olympics! 
We are thrilled to host New England Olympic sailor Carol Newman Cronin for a reading and book signing this Friday, July 20. Her latest book, Game of Sails, is a timely read with the London Olympics just a few weeks away. The event starts at 6:30pm and will run for about one hour.

From Goodreads.com: "Casey Morgan was just about to qualify for the national sailing team when Spencer Harding capsized on top of her. Desperate for a secret weapon, she steamrolls into his casual small town life to get dibs on a fast new sail. As even Casey's single-minded determination is tested by treachery, divorce, and serious injury, the two sailors combine their opposing approaches to work toward a lofty goal—a berth on the Olympic team."

Ms. Cronin crowned a lifetime of competitive achievement by winning two merge races at the 2004 Olympics. Game of Sails offers a fresh perspective on teamwork, competition, and what winning really means.
