Abstract

THIS VOLUME stems from the twenty-fourth annual Walter Prescott Webb Memorial Lectures held at the University of Texas at Arlington on March 16, 1989. Lectures focusing on the theme of "Sport History and Sport Mythology" were presented by Allen Guttmann, Richard D. Mandell, Stephen Hardy, and Donald G. Kyle. An additional paper by Steven A. Riess was the winning entry in the 1989 Webb-Smith Essay Competition. Revised and edited to varying degrees by the authors and co-editors, the five papers are collected in this volume, with an introduction by Jack W. Berryman. The co-editors wish to thank all the authors for their contributions and their cooperation.
