A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur :

Contained within the pages of this encyclopaedic book is everything anyone could wish to know about the Winter Olympics. With a complete statistical record for all events through the history of the Games, and now in its eighth edition, this is the authoritative book on the Winter Olympics. From speed skating to snowboarding, bobsleigh to ice hockey, the book gives the medals tables, timings, distances and scores of every event - and provides vital information on rules and scoring systems. But much more than a statistical compendium, the book also offers a wealth of Winter Olympic history, anecdote and lore, bringing alive the most dramatic moments from the Games and celebrating the many extraordinary individuals who have competed. This new edition, published in the run up to the 2010 Vancouver Games, has been expanded to include the results from Turin in 2006. It covers each event, Games by Games, from the four skating events which first featured in the 1908 London Olympics to freestyle skiing and curling - including discontinued events.
