In Competition & Community, Alan Wright recollects life growing up in Lachine in amazing detail. The city has a history as a breeding ground for producing high-level athletes in many sports. The Lachine Racing Canoe Club, a powerhouse in the early years of the sport, was reputed to have influenced many to be resilient and aim higher in all walks of life. Although I did not have the good fortune of witnessing the glory years in real time, Competition & Community inspires the reader to follow the flame which was lit many years ago. This book serves as a glowing reminder of a great town to have grown up in.
