King Football : sport and spectacle in the golden age of radio and newsreels, movies and magazines, the weekly & the daily press
Bok av Michael Oriard
In this landmark work exploring the vibrant world of football from the 1920s through the 1950s, Michael Oriard explores how the mass media shaped and were shaped by the exploding popularity of football. King Football is at once a sweeping cultural history of football, a provocative study of the power of print and broadcast media, and a compelling investigation of American attitudes about race, class, and gender and their relationship to sport.
