The 1896 Olympic Games: Results for All Competitors in All Events, With Commentary (Results of the Early Modern Olympics/Bill Mallon, 1)

Rating:
Summary: The most complete summary of the 1896 Olympics
Review: This work has everything you might want to know about the 1896 Olympic Games: results, back ground stories, statistics, competitor information. The best part is that all controversies on the results - quite a few - are carefully documented so one can see WHY the authors have listed the results as they did. Also, several contemporary articles on the Games give a good picture of these Olympic Games. Because these texts are original, you can once again read and judge yourself.
