The National Year of Reading theme for August is all about sport and reading.
Sport has always attracted great writers and 100 years ago at the first London Olympic Games even Sir Arthur Conan Doyle was at the White City Stadium to cover the finish of the first ever Marathon.
Libraries have lots of great sports books and you can find some sporty reading lists at Manchester Libraries’ online catalogue. Reserve any title for free and we’ll deliver it to your nearest library.
Do you have a favourite sports book? We want to know about it!
Write a review of your favourite sporting read or recommend a title to other readers. Just click on the comments tag at the top of the page to share your thoughts with other Manchester readers.
