About this product
Product Information
The Official History of the Olympic Games and the IOC- Athens to London 1894 2012 is a dramatic account of the history of the world s foremost sporting spectacle. It is the lavishly illustrated story of the re-creation of the Olympic Games by Pierre de Coubertin, of the often controversial fortunes of the governing body, which was formed in 1894, and of the highs and lows of the Olympics themselves since the first Games in 1896. It also tells the stories of the historic competitors from Spyridon Louis (the inaugural marathon winner) and such heroes as Jim Thorpe, Paavo Nurmi, Sonja Henie, Jesse Owens, Fanny Blankers-Koen, Emil Z topek, Herb Elliott, Kip Keino, Mark Spitz, Franz Klammer, Sebastian Coe and Carl Lewis through to Hicham El Guerrouj, Michael Phelps and Ya-Na Kim. Each chapter begins with a personal reminiscence by either a famous champion or a notable IOC figure. Detailed background is provided to the many crises- the Nazi Games of 1936; the massacre at Mexico City in 1968; the terrorist slaughter of Israelis at the 1972 Munich Games; the boycotts; the advent of professionals from 1988; and the Ben Johnson scandal and the ongoing threat of drug abuse.

This purchase is highly satisfying. The item was dispatched promptly via tracked parcel and at a truly reasonable rate. It arrived in just a few days, despite covering nearly 17,000 km around the globe to reach me. It was very well packaged with bubble wrap and sturdy layers of thick cardboard. Upon unpacking, it was exactly as described – like new, in perfect condition. I highly recommend this bookstore. THANKS SO MUCH!
