Ritual and Record: Sports Records and Quantification in Pre-Modern Societies - Contributions to the Study of World History

After introductions by Guttmann and the editors, the book proceeds on a chronological study of evidence of sports records in ancient Egypt, Greece and Rome, medieval England, the Renaissance, Tudor and Elizabethan England, pre-modern Hawaii, and pre-modern Japan.
