REVIEWERS: Reviewers sought for Sport in History

Reviewers are now sought from academics to write in-depth scholarly essays on the following themes for which the books listed can be supplied. It is expected that these publications will be reviewed in the context of other pertinent literature, including theory, and bring readers up-to-date on the documentation of the subject. Interested parties please reply to me personally at richard.cox@manchester.ac.uk. I am also interested to hear from anyone who would like to propose a topic and recent books they consider should be included. I will then endeavour to acquire them for the author for this purpose.
