Présentation de l'éditeur

London's contribution to sport has been enormous; it is the home of cricket, rugby and tennis, and it was in London that many sports were first organised and codified. It was here that lawn tennis was first played on a rectangular court. The cricket club at Marylebone drew up the rules of cricket, and London possibly gave birth to the sport of boxing. Here too is the oldest cycling club and the oldest rowing race. And it was London that staged the first international championships of water polo, table-tennis and weightlifting. A well-illustrated book on this fascinating theme.
