My Reading!
Well, I've rejigged the order of my life and now I have a bit more time to read - woo! So, with that, I have managed to finish this book, The Ancient Greek Olympics by Judith Swaddling - http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/17...! It was a truly lovelly book, the small size irrelevant as it packed more actual information, minus waffle, than many other books. Absolutely lovelly - here's my review:
The Ancient Olympic Games: [2nd Edition] by Judith Swaddling

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


This book is wonderful! It covers every single aspect of the games in great detail, answering the sort of question most books skirt around with blather. Excellently supported by beautiful and well chosen photographs, this book covers everything from the ceremonies, organisation, setting, training of athletes and the events themselves. Added to this is a fascinating chapter on the modern games and the various other attempts to resurrect them. The writing style is lucid and engaging and I cannot recommend this book enough, a great book!
