From Olympia to Athens

Περιγραφή:

A fantastic journey in the time and the place of the Olympic Games, via exceptionally fine photographic works of older times. Embarking upon our journey in 776 B.C., from the birthplace of the games, Olympia, we arrive in Athens of 1896, on the site of the Panathinaiko stadium. In a year when the Olympic Games return to their birthplace, this book pays tribute not just to the athletes but also the people of ancient Greece, whom we witness come to life before our very eyes, touching our souls and transferring us into the atmosphere of another era.
