Description
Allen Guttmann is a professor of American Studies at Amherst College and author of,"From Ritual to Record: The Nature of Modern Sports" (1978). In his new book, "The Games Must Go On", Guttmann provides an assessment of Brundage's role in shaping the modem Olympic games. This work is both a biography of Brundage and an evaluation of his career as an international sports figure.
