About the contributors
Reviews
-
Written with authority, based on an astonishing volume and variety of source material, and with enthusiasm that can easily infect the reader.
Economic History Review
-
[I]t has much value as an introduction to the basic themes that historians of sport have explored.
The International History Review
-
Huggins's great strength in this book is to bring order to detail. He shows us sport through social class, as well as its importance to the individual ... in a methodical and generally satisfying manner...many more should gain a valuable sense of how their chosen specialty fits ... The Victorians and Sport will make for a great start.
