About the Book
Twenty years ago, Saturday Afternoon Fever told us the story of the central place that sport can hold in both a personal and a national identity. Since the 1980s, however, much has changed, and this special issue of the International Journal of the History of Sport re-examines the position of sport in the hearts and minds of Australians, comparing the cultural history and analysis that emerged from the original classic text with the subsequent developments that have at once transformed Australian sport and established certain unchangeable qualities within it.
