| Meer info | 'This is a fascinating return to the first modern Olympics, held in 1896, as witnessed by one of the world's great travel writers of the time. Drawing upon a wealth of ancient Greek history, mythology, literature, and art to embellish his first-hand account, Burton Holmes provides a delightful and informative record of that seminal event. From contests for Odes composed in ancient Greek, to pistol-shooting matches, and description of a marathon runner resplendent in Greek attire, Holmes captures the flavor and immediacy of the times. He gives us details of the games, the contestants, the prizes, and the audiences, as well as the astounding performances of the Americans, beating the Greeks at their own sports.
