| Abstract: | Over 60,000,000 people died worldwide during the course of the Second World War and, in contrast to those slaughtered in The Great War, it was civilian populations that bore the brunt. They perished in the Holocaust, in internment camps, in bombed towns and cities and as 'collateral damage', in war zones, such as the Eastern Front and in Asia. Among this carnage were hundred of individuals of all nations who had competed in Olympic Games. Imagine the loss of so many of the world's greatest sportsmen and women of the present era. The author has painstakingly researched the lives, achievements and circumstances of death of almost five hundred athletes of the period. While many were household names at the time, this exceptional work honours these fallen Olympians and reminds us of the futility and wastefulness of war |

In particular to Abigail Cobley for all her help and encouragement. I hope you enjoy it. At Pen 8C Sword, my thanks go to Charles Hewitt, Barnaby Blacker, Jon Wilkinson, Mat Blurton and Matt Jones - without their professional input and enthusiasm this book would not exist. The book is a memorial to those who reached peaks of athletic and artistic perfection only to have their lives cut short, often with their families, usually in horrific circumstances. Let they and their achievements be remembered forever. Introduction This book contains short biographies of all those who took part in the Olympic Games before the Second World War, whether they won a medal or not. I hope it contributes to honouring these fallen Olympians forever
and reminds us of the futility of war. May their memories always be a blessing XII

They perished in the Holocaust, in internment camps, in bombed towns and cities and as 'collateral damage', in war zones, such as the Eastern Front and in Asia. Among this carnage were hundred of individuals of all nations who had competed in Olympic Games. Imagine the loss of so many of the world's greatest sportsmen and women of the present era. The author has painstakingly researched the lives, achievements and circumstances of death of almost five hundred athletes of the period. While many were household names at the time, this exceptional work honours these fallen Olympians and reminds us of the futility and wastefulness of war</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1="0" ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Olympiateilnehmerin</subfield><subfield code="0">(DE-588)4348648-4</subfield><subfield code="2">gnd</subfield><subfield code="9">rswk-swf</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1="0" ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Zweiter Weltkrieg</subfield><subfield code="0">(DE-588)4079167-1</subfield><subfield code="2">gnd</subfield><subfield code="9">rswk-swf</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1="0" ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Olympiateilnehmer</subfield><subfield code="0">(DE-588)4172562-1</subfield><subfield code="2">gnd</subfield><subfield code="9">rswk-swf</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1="0" ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Kriegsopfer</subfield><subfield code="0">(DE-588)4165700-7</subfield><subfield code="2">gnd</subfield><subfield code="9">rswk-swf</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="653" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Olympic athletes / History</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="653" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">World War, 1939-1945 / Personal narratives</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="653" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Biography</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="653" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">World War II.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="653" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">World War II.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="653" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Biography</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="653" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Olympic athletes</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="653" ind1=" " ind2="4"><subfield code="a">1939-1945</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="653" ind1=" " ind2="6"><subfield code="a">History</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="653" ind1=" " ind2="6"><subfield code="a">Personal narratives</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="655" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="0">(DE-588)4006804-3</subfield><subfield code="a">Biografie</subfield><subfield code="2">gnd-content</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="689" ind1="0" ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Olympiateilnehmer</subfield><subfield code="0">(DE-588)4172562-1</subfield><subfield code="D">s</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="689" ind1="0" ind2="1"><subfield code="a">Olympiateilnehmerin</subfield><subfield code="0">(DE-588)4348648-4</subfield><subfield code="D">s</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="689" ind1="0" ind2="2"><subfield code="a">Zweiter Weltkrieg</subfield><subfield code="0">(DE-588)4079167-1</subfield><subfield code="D">s</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="689" ind1="0" ind2="3"><subfield code="a">Kriegsopfer</subfield><subfield code="0">(DE-588)4165700-7</subfield><subfield code="D">s</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="689" ind1="0" ind2=" "><subfield code="5">DE-604</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="856" ind1="4" ind2="2"><subfield code="m">Digitalisierung BSB München - ADAM Catalogue Enrichment</subfield><subfield code="q">application/pdf</subfield><subfield code="u">http://bvbr.bib-bvb.de:8991/F?func=service&doc_library=BVB01&local_base=BVB01&doc_number=032932091&sequence=000001&line_number=0001&func_code=DB_RECORDS&service_type=MEDIA</subfield><subfield code="3">Inhaltsverzeichnis</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="940" ind1="1" ind2=" "><subfield code="n">oe</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="940" ind1="1" ind2=" "><subfield code="q">BSB_NED_20211220</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="942" ind1="1" ind2="1"><subfield code="c">355.009</subfield><subfield code="e">22/bsb</subfield><subfield code="f">09044</subfield><subfield code="g">181</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="942" ind1="1" ind2="1"><subfield code="c">796.09</subfield><subfield code="e">22/bsb</subfield><subfield code="f">0904</subfield><subfield code="g">47</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="942" ind1="1" ind2="1"><subfield code="c">355.009</subfield><subfield code="e">22/bsb</subfield><subfield code="f">09044</subfield><subfield code="g">47</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="942" ind1="1" ind2="1"><subfield code="c">796.09</subfield><subfield code="e">22/bsb</subfield><subfield code="f">0904</subfield><subfield code="g">181</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="943" ind1="1" ind2=" "><subfield code="a">oai:aleph.bib-bvb.de:BVB01-032932091</subfield></datafield></record></collection> |
