Book excerpt: Back in 775 BC, athletes from all over Ancient Greece came together to compete in various games. The contests were held every four years and winning athletes brought honor and respect to their homelands. The tradition of the Olympic Games faded over time until 1896, when they were brought back to life. The first modern Olympics were held in Athens, Greece, with over two hundred athletes from fourteen countries. Today, nearly three thousand years after the first Games, the Summer Olympics attract one hundred thousand top athletes from over two hundred countries. Billions of fans around the world cheer on their national teams to bring back the gold.

Book excerpt: Numerous books, publications and articles have been written about the ancient and modern Olympic Games. Such writings contain detailed accounts of the events themselves and the excitement that unfolded. This book is NOT about all that. Instead, it is more of a quick reference and "fun to read" on Olympians representing the United States. It is intended for the reader to become familiar with some of the trivia associated with the athletes, and to quiz themselves and their friends about little known Olympic history and trivia.
