Descrição: This compelling commemorative publication of the first one hundred years of the Olympic Summer Games presents the breathtaking athletic achievements, in all twenty-six disciplines, that have defined the Olympic tradition. Olympic Dreams follows the Olympic movement from the early Olympiads, which featured archaic sports like tug-of-war, all the way to the exciting new events of the 1996 Atlanta Games. With graphics and extraordinary photographs, many rarely seen or never before published, photography historian Douglas Collins offers a penetrating look at the athletes who have revolutionized their sport, whether with technical innovation or enormous emotional courage. Specially designed graphics by Nigel Holmes highlight these achievements and help explain the athletic techniques that have permanently changed some Olympic events. Drawing from the world's finest Olympic resources - the United States Olympic Committee Archives, the Hulton Deutsch Archives and Allsport - and with a design by prize-winning art director Mirko Ilic, this is the indispensable book of the Olympic Games.
