| Synopsis: |
This is a glaring anomaly for a country that became the first colonized nation to join the Olympic movement, one that dazzled the world with its early hockey wins and one whose Olympic history contains within its folds hitherto unknown chapters of the development of Indian nationalism and identity - This monograph is unique because it is built on as yet virgin archive of Indian history. For the first time we have unlimited access to the hitherto inaccessible 'official' archive of the International Olympic Committee at the IOC museum in Lausanne, Switzerland.' |
