Podtitul: Olympijské hry 1936 v Berlíně Monografie přibližuje přípravy i samotný průběh XI. letních olympijských her, které se roku 1936 konaly v Berlíně a byly zneužity k nacistické propagandě. Na základě literatury, pramenů, rozhovorů s pamětníky a zpráv z dobového tisku shrnuje autor průběh XI. letních olympijských her. Berlín byl jako pořadatelské město zvolen ještě před nástupem Hitlera k moci a hry se měly stát oslavou mírového soužití. Hitlerův mocenský triumf však dal sportovním soutěžím zcela jiný charakter. Hilton rekapituluje "Hitlerovu olympiádu" od volby Berlína roku 1931, přes společensko-politickou situaci, jež tvořila rámec této sportovní události, až po samotný průběh soutěží. Připomíná rovněž opomíjené skutečnosti o těchto hrách (např. důvod, proč si Hitler nepotřásl rukou s Owensem, vyřazení židovských běžců z americké štafety atd.). Pohled na jednu z nejkontroverznějších sportovních událostí 20. stol.

This intimate portrait of controversial World Champion James Hunt - in series with the successful "Memories of Ayrton Senna" - was put together from responses to the question: what is your strongest memory of him? Hunt - public school hell-raiser, loved and feared broadcaster, an enigma even to his friends - was one of the very few people who lived life as he wanted to. Because those who knew him and worked with him were free to reminisce rather than restrict themselves to a specific topic, all sorts of new and surprising material emerges.

This is one of the greatest stories ever told – a century of men and machines pitted against each other, death riding at their elbow, risking everything to win. In this action-packed volume, now available in paperback, Christopher Hilton celebrates 100 years of Grand Prix motor racing, from the first race in June 1906, when horses towed the new-fangled cars to the grid, to the awesome technology of today. It will fascinate both the race fan and general readers, spreading the human story before them like a feast.

This book gets behind the PR-speak to explore what Grand Prix drivers really think and feel. They talk with rare frankness of their hopes and fears, how they began racing and what forces them to continue. From Michael Schumacher at the front of the grid to Perry McCarthy who never got on the grid at all, they discuss crashes, emotions, survival techniques--and even how racing compares with sex. The book is packed with revealing new interviews and information.

A hard-hitting, often tragic "people's" account of the Berlin Wall retraces its nearly thirty-year history, from its erection in 1961 to its spectacular demise in 1989.
