This book chronicles the history of the development of the Olympic Games as we know them today. The book travels back into antiquity when the Games first began in Ancient Greece and provides a detailed map of Olympia where the ancient games were held. There is information about training for the ancient games, competing, the closing ceremony and how the games finally ended. Then the book moves to an examination of how the Olympic Games were revived by Baron Pierre de Coubertin, and there is a brief history of the Games since 1896, including which sports have been played, disputes and disasters and facts and figures. There is also a timeline of the history of the Olympic Games.
