Hardcover. Condizione: Good. Condizione sovraccoperta: very good. Second printing. Signed without inscription by Dick Foasbury and Bob Welch on a corporate (Sapient) holiday book plate affixed to the front free endpaper. Black hardcover with silver spine titles, 2nd printing in dustjacket. A good only copy with wear to the spine… tips, bumping to the lower board corners and some dots of brown to the bottom of the front board. Interior is clean and unmarked other than the ghost of a previous bookstore price erased at the top of the ffep. The book opens widely at the half title page, but the binding is solid, as are the hinges. The unclipped jacket is much better - clean and bright with minimal edgewear. 282 pp., indexed, black and white photo gathering at the center. Fosbury's passing in early 2023 was a blow to the track and field community in Oregon, where he pioneered the Fosbury Flop - used by most competitors in the high jump to this day.

Hardback. Condizione: New. Track and Field Writers of America's Book of the Year! "Great read! . Evokes a time and place that many of us remember well, and provides insight for those who came after. "-Tom Jordan, author of Pre: The Story of America's Greatest Running Legend, Steve PrefontaineIn 1968, perhaps the finest US Olympi…c men's track-and-field team ever stirred the world in unprecedented ways, among them the victory stand black rights protest by Tommie Smith and John Carlos in Mexico City. But in competition no single athlete mirrored the free-thinking '60s better than Dick Fosbury, a failed prep high jumper who invented an offbeat style that ultimately won him a gold medal and revolutionized the event. No jumpers today use any other style than his.Yet few know the struggles Fosbury endured to achieve his success, as he and Bob Welch recount in The Wizard of Foz. From the tragic death of a younger brother to nearly dying himself, from flunking out of college to nearly being drafted, Fosbury cleared far more obstacles than a high-jump bar. And even when he had seemingly made the US Olympic Team, he faced a "redo" that nobody saw coming.This book tells a story of loss, survival, and triumph, twined in a person (Fosbury), a time (the '60s), and a place (a fantasy-like Olympic Trials venue high in the Sierra Nevada) clearly made for each other. It is a story of a young man who refused to listen to those who laughed at him, those who doubted him, and those who tried to make him someone he was not.
