Description

" Although the book gives a detailed history of the Olympian Games and describes the organization, rules and kind of events that took place during the eleven centuries of their life, Varvitsiotes' book gives greater emphasis to the cultural aspects of athletics in ancient Greece, and how athletics influenced the Greeks' overall culture and, they in turn, were influenced by it.
