Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. Riess examines the evolution of sport from its rural and urban origins as a less-than-respectable entertainment for the lower classes, through its antebellum upsurge when, with the development of a new sport ideology, it attained respectability - penetrating and finally remaking popular culture.
