内容説明
"Sport in Canada: A History" examines the influence of religion, politics, economy, the military, gender, race, and social class on sport. The narrative extends from initial contact between Europeans and Aboriginals through to the present day, focusing on the impact of technology, training, sport science, professional coaching, and massive government and corporate funding. Specific topical attention is given to the organization of sport in Montreal, case studies on the emergence on a national level of lacrose and baseball, significant sporting personalities, and to the idea of amateurism as an organizing principle in early Canadian sport. The book will also include coverage of the impact of leisure sport, and early institutions important to the development of the foundation of sport (taverns for example), as well as the issue of masculinity as a value system and its profound impact on sport in Canada.
