520 $a"Over one hundred years ago, London hosted its first Olympic Games. It was a world away from the modern-day Olympics - everything was built and organized in less than two years, and at a minute fraction of today's cost." ... "Rebecca Jenkins' book delightfully evokes the vanished world of the 1908 London Olympics, aided by over seventy-five charming and nostalgic photographs. Her book is a fascinating slice of social and sporting history - and provides a thought-provoking contrast to the forthcoming London Olympics of 2012."--BOOK JACKET.
