     Extractions: History reprinted with permission from author Peter King. Excerpts of the following are from Rowing , published by Stoddart (1994). Introduction The sport of rowing has origins in navel battles of ancient Greek and Roman battle ships, when victory in battle situations was determined largely by the skill of ship handling, and therefore the abilities of the oarsmen were key. Beyond military commitment, training in rowing did not really gain popularity until 1715 when Thomas Doggett, a British actor, provided in his will a sum of money to be paid out to the winning crew in an annual race on the Thames River. Handsome prizes were not an anomaly through this period. In fact, during the heyday of professional sculling (1816 and 1878) rowing regattas were highly attended spectator events. Much of the attraction lay in the prize money offered, and the practice of betting was a much-favoured custom among the many social followers. Many of the early oarsmen actually earned their livelihoods as sportsmen, often doubling as boxers or football players. The sportsmen of this era were sponsored by individuals or clubs, much as prize horses are kept today. Long before participation at the Olympics, professional Canadian scullers dominated the international scene. Ned Hanlan, 1880-84 World Champion in the single scull, was a small sinewy man whose ability to out-talent many a larger opponent captured hearts around the world. His coach, also from Canada, invented the original sliding seat. Hanlan was followed by a long list of prominent Canadian scullers, including Jake Gaudaur and Lou Scholes.

     Extractions: Recent Approaches and Perspectives Edited by S. W. Pope "Impressive! Pope presents a variety of new social, cultural, and economic approaches to the study of sports in American society." George Kirsch, author of The Creation of American Team Sports In The New American Sport History sixteen contributors, many of them among the best known in the field, explore topics as diverse as the historical debate over black athletic superiority, the "selling" of sport and religion in society, the eroticism of athletic activity, the sexual fears of women athletes, and the marketing of the marathon. This volume, in line with the changing nature of sport history as a field of study, focuses less on "traditional" topics and more on themes of class, gender, race, and ethnicity, which also define the larger parameters of social and cultural history.
