5.0 out of 5 stars
A great "view" from the eyes of one who saw this event,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Before the Eyes of the World: Mexico and the 1968 Olympic Games (Hardcover)
Kevin Witherspoon has captured the essence of this historical event in succinct and captivating terms. His writing is clear, readible, and enjoyble, while being informative. I found the history of the Olympics and how it came to be in Mexico City especially interesting. Most of us who saw this Olympics remember it mostly for the two Americans with their bowed heads and raised black-gloved fists. Witherspoon gives greater perspective to the meaning behind that one snapshot in time. A good read, worth your time and investment, with hoepfully more to come from this aspiring and gifted sports historian.
