The illustrated encyclopedia of sport
"The Illustrated Encyclopedia of Sport is a comprehensive guide to every branch of sport played throughout the world." "The book is divided into nineteen main sections, each covering a major group of sports such as Track and Field, Cycling, Snow Sports or Motor Sports, and each category is then broken down into individual events or sports. So Aquatic Sports, for example, covers Swimming, Synchronised Swimming, Water Polo, Apnea Free Diving and Diving, while Racket Sports covers Tennis, Racquetball, Table Tennis, Badminton and Squash. In all, over 120 sports and disciplines are covered, plus many variants - the entry for Sailing, for instance, covers all categories of competition, from Olympic dinghy racing to ocean racing."--BOOK JACKET
