Tim Mack, the Pole Vault, and the Quest for Olympic Gold
Description
Reveals the subculture of pole vaulting - from Bob Richards, who won Olympic gold twice in pole vaulting; to Sergey Bubka, the controversial pole vaulter; to Don Bragg, a rowdy Tarzan-like character who swung on ropes in his backyard to build upper-body strength; to the duel between Mack and Toby Stevenson as they battled for gold in Athens.
