This book provides a close look at centuries-long traditions kept alive in the hearts of European villages & towns: holiday games & traditional games, popular sports & more obscure ones. The games are played with balls & sticks, bowls, ropes, eggs & other poor materials. They are played during festivals in the town square with everyone gathered to watch, with daring feats, rivalry & outrageous betting. The mini-calendar at the end gives the dates of some traditional games held in festivals throughout Europe, a small guide for an unusual & enjoyable trip. The book is beautifully illustrated with color photographs & drawings.
