Myths and Milestones in the History of Sport de S. Wagg

Myths and Milestones in the History of Sport

Editat de S. Wagg
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 30 noi 2011
The conventional history of sport, as conveyed by television and the sports press, has thrown up a great many apparent turning points, but knowledge of these apparently defining moments is often slight. This book offers readable, in-depth studies of a series of these watersheds in sport history and of the circumstances in which they came about.
