Synopsis
The Kansas Relays: Track and Field Tradition in the Heartland is the first book devoted to the rich history of this classic track carnival. Joe Schrag, a KU Relays Hall of Fame member who has seen the meet up close since 1954, introduces readers to historic events, talented people, and unique moments that have made Lawrence, Kan., a springtime destination for athletes, coaches, and fans since 1923. In 17 full-color chapters organized into four Parts (I: Tradition; II: Moments; III: Action; IV: Innovation), The Kansas Relays is a collection of compelling stories both familiar and unknown. It also is an indispensable reference book, featuring seven appendixes, and at the end of each Part III chapter a thorough list of Olympians who have competed at the Relays, including Jayhawk greats like Al Oerter and Jim Ryun as well as visitors such as Maurice Greene, Joe Dial and Bershawn "Batman" Jackson. After 86 years, iconic Memorial Stadium passes the baton to Rock Chalk Park in 2014 as the site of the Relays. Schrag reminds us of the innovation and performances that have made the event so special, and are sure to keep the meet creating more memories for many years to come., The Kansas Relays: Track and Field Tradition in the Heartland is the first book devoted to the rich history of this classic track carnival.

    They were all packed well enough, and arrived shortly after shipped (though time to ship was delayed). It’s great to see these old books of my youth again. My two gripes with this experience are 1) a lack of communication from the seller and 2) a handful of these came from a smoking environment, because they smell like cigarette and weed. I only wish the seller had put that in description, which is why I’m rating appropriately. Otherwise everything else seems fine.
