This book which does justice to Ljunggrens impressive research. Worthy of attention . This is an admirable study and one that could serve as a template for political histories of other countries. Finally, Palgrave Macmillan deserve praise for publishing a series of Studies in Sport and Politics. It is to Ljunggrens credit, however, that his book is alone in the series in having the word political in its title. (Alan Bairner, idrottsforum.org, September 4, 2024)
