Why don't you give exact delivery time?
Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

Long description:
Throught the accounts of ancient authors, the author examines the athletic events of the ancient Olympics, other sport events, women in sports, athletic clothing, and accounts of famous athletes. The last section of the book contains original sources form six different ancient sport authorities.
'This lively and energetic book well matches its subject matter. The sources are excellent - plainly and vigorously translated, meticulously ascribed, and presented with a full and critical commentary. A vast range is used, much of it unfamiliar. This book will prove a delight alike to specialists and non-specialists ... I would like to see such source book appear on every aspect of Greek and Roman life. Professor Sweet has set a fine example.'
Jennifer Gibbon, Highbury Fields School. JACT Review
