Summary: The Best Olympics Book
Review: I was amazed with the concept of this book. It was entirely different than any other one on the subject. Every aspect of it offered a new meaning to the Olympic Spirit and the ideals of the Games. It is indeed a wonderful book which, anyone interested in the noble competition, should read.
My two teenage daughters were thrilled as well.
Congratulations to its author!

Summary: Tribute to the Olympic Spirit!!
Review: This is the most uplifting book I've read on the Olympics. The author's approach to the subject is unique to say the very least. I've learned not only about the history of the Games but also the reasons and the rationale that created these idealistic contests. The comparison among the ancient and contemporary games is also an eye-opener and last, but definitely not least, the optimistic thoughts on future Olympiads are indeed very encouraging and provocative. I highly recommend it for children and adults.

Review: With the 2004 Olympics to be held in Athens, this book is the perfect way to prepare yourself for the historic event! The Olympic Games recounts the history of the original Olympic Games, as they were held in Ancient Greece. The author provides beautiful pictures of Greece and of the original site of the Olympics to draw the reader back in time. This book would make a perfect gift for anyone training ofr the 2004 Olympics, or anyone planning to attend the games in Athens.
