Anthem Studies in Travel

Anthem Studies in South Asian Literature, Aesthetics and Culture

Strongman Eugen Sandow (1867-1925) was renowned as the world's "perfect man" at the turn of the 20thcentury. This book examines his fascinating 2-year "world tour" of South Africa, India, Southeast Asia, and China in 1904-1905, at the peak of European imperialism and rising Asian confidence and nationalism.

A pioneering, eye-opening investigation into the world of online gambling, its explosive growth and the transformational impact it is having on sport, tech, individuals and society. A little flutter. All part of the game. Get closer to the action. A familiar voice, inviting you to join the real fans and get involved. It has never been easier to place a bet. Wall to wall adverts on repeat surround every sporting event. The smartphone in your pocket all you need to unlock a dizzying array of bets on almost any aspect of any sport. Since its origins as a provincial cottage industry almost twenty-five years ago, UK online gambling has become a globe-straddling behemoth worth more than £10 billion a year. It can sometimes feel as if the point of sport is to bet on it. But it didn't have to be this way. In Imitation Games, academic and BBC New Generation Thinker Darragh McGee travels the world to tell the incredible story of the individuals and companies who brought this brave new world of betting into being (and got very rich doing so). And he traces the devastation and destruction that gambling leaves behind it. The inadequate safeguards and the broken lives that mark the fun stopping. And proffers a series of solutions for how we can create a different future.

Routledge Research in Sports History

Since their inception in 1930 as the British Empire Games, the Commonwealth Games have developed into one of the world’s major sporting mega-events, with 5,000 athletes competing in Glasgow 2014 representing countries covering one third of the world’s population. This is the first book to survey the entire history of the Commonwealth Games and to explore their significance in the context of sporting political history. It examines the relationship between the Games and the Commonwealth organisation more generally; evaluates the development of the Games themselves, and analyses the key issues which have shaped their political and historical development.

THE STORY OF FOOTBALL'S MOST NOTORIOUS COACH - HELENIO HERRERA - AND THE PART THIS MASTER OF THE DARK ARTS PLAYED IN THE GAME'S FIRST, MYSTERIOUS 'WHITE DEATH'. 'HH - what a character. A deeply disturbed, malevolent, brilliant man... A superb book. I absolutely loved it.' - Paul Howard, record five-time Irish Book Award winner AVAILABLE TO PRE-ORDER NOW Nicknamed 'Il Mago' (the Wizard) after bringing European Cup glory to Internazionale in successive years, Helenio Herrera was hailed as one of the finest minds in football. This explosive book explores the enigma of an incredibly charismatic figure: a philanderer, charlatan, trash-talker and serial winner mired in controversy, whose stellar career was halted by the death of one of his star players and his subsequent trial for manslaughter. 'HH', as he was also known, revolutionised football coaching. He prepared his teams meticulously, was obsessed with his players' mental toughness and introduced idiosyncratic psychological techniques. He made his name as a coach in Spain in the 1950s, winning La Liga twice with both Atlético Madrid and Barcelona, but it was his move to Inter in 1960 that propelled him to stardom. Shelving the attacking football that had won him plaudits in Spain, at Inter Herrera perfected the catenaccio system, an ultra-defensive strategy that strangled Italian football in the 1960s. His team, which included libero Armando Picchi, Italian icon Giacinto Facchetti, the great midfielder Luis Suárez and international forward Sandro Mazzola, won three Scudettos in the mid-1960s and were only denied a third European Cup by Jock Stein's Celtic in 1967. Comprehensively researched, HH reveals how Herrera surrounded himself with sinister men, including Dezsö Solti, a former kapo for Dr Josef Mengele in Auschwitz, and was the original master of the game's dark arts. The psychological warfare he waged against other teams has seen him portrayed as the 'original José Mourinho' and he was distrusted by his peers, such as Santiago Bernabéu, and Bill Shankly, whose Liverpool side controversially lost to Inter in the 1965 European Cup semi-final. Herrera also exerted enormous mental and physical pressure on his own players. In Spain he introduced a regime of performance-enhancing drugs, and he continued this practice in Italy, which eventually led to his downfall. Having joined Roma in 1968, his role in the untimely death of their young striker, Giuliano Taccola, brought scrutiny of his methods. Taccola's 'white death', or heart failure associated with alleged doping, led to Herrera being charged with manslaughter and his coaching career never recovered. Featuring interviews with those who knew Herrera well, including Fabio Capello, Sandro Mazzola, Ian St. John and Denis Law, HH is a fascinating story of deceit and intrigue, bloodshed, sex and glorious football, set against the backdrop of the Franco dictatorship in 1950s Spain and 1960s Italy's la dolce vita era.

When motorsport and automotive photographer Jamey Price first saw the NASCAR promotional film cameras from the 1990s show up on another photographer’s social media feed, he knew he had to have one. These cameras were never made to take outstanding photos. They were inexpensive, poorly made, and plastic. The winders break. The shutter stops working. They will just freeze in below zero temperatures. But they also capture magic.From the IMSA races to the 24 Hours of Le Mans, Formula 1 races around the world to Monterey Car Week and Lamborghini events, Racing Unfiltered chronicles Price’s year-long journey to capture the highs, lows, and candid moments of motorsport racing, all through the lens of vintage film cameras.
