Description
This is a biographical dictionary of 472 black men and women, mostly Americans, who have won Olympic medals between 1904 and 1988. "African-descended" is the scope including Brazilians, Cubans, and Ethiopians, but not South Africans. Beginning with an introduction by Reynold O'Neal, president of the British Virgin Islands Olympic Committee, the book lists Olympic athletes alphabetically. Included for each is participating country, date and place of birth, medals won, and information on personal, high school, and college records. The volume includes statistics by sport, by year, and by country; a feature on black managers in professional sports; and a detailed index, including the names of high schools and colleges for which the athletes played. ISBN 0-87287-618-7: $27.50 (For use only in the library).
