What a good choice for a Summer of Sport book. This is my first visit to your channel. Nice to meet you!

And nice to meet you! I’ve seen you in the comments sections, & now I’m a subscriber.

Great pick. I've read a few books on the Greek Olympics. Maybe I'll look into seeing if anything recent has been done

[@davidnovakreadspoetry]

It’d be interesting to see. What more could have been unearthed? 🤣

[@PatriciaCrabtree-wm8xd]

The athletes were naked and girls were not allowed. So, are there pictures?

[@davidnovakreadspoetry]

Indeed there are, as you will see… 😂
