A real compendium of information for the armchair buff or visiting Olympics spectator. Each Olympic games, both summer and winter is covered. It is lavishly illustrated - the stories are told via the pictures which are all well-captioned.As well, there is a comprehensive list of results (Gold Silver and Bronze medal winners) for every event in every games.This is the definitive Olympics compendium and I thoroughly recommend it.

A great book for anybody looking to get a reference for the olympic games. Long time back i was looking for the same but i got nothing, now " The Olympic Games " gave me the chance. The result of all competitions in the entire summer and winter olympics really comprehensive, text and pictures were useful and enjoyable. I feel no sorry that i got this reference.

A great little book which covers all aspects of the even greater Olympic games - great for reference, casual reading or if you just love the odd nutty fact! A must for sea-farers (great sailing section)
