At first, the Olymipic Games lasted a single day, but the Games eventually were lengthened to five days. Readers of “The Olympic Games” will learn about the origins of the games, and about one of the most accomplished Greek athletes of ancient Greece, Milo of Croton. These articles are followed by a thoughtful presentation of cheating by athletes in “The Zanes of Olympia,” a fictional transcript (based on a true event) of a toast delivered by a passionate and idealistic young athlete to his teammates prior to the 1920 Summer Olympics in Antwerp, Belgium.
