This book, authored by French journalists Olivier Margot and Étienne Bonamy, captures the emotional and suspenseful scenes that make the Games so riveting, from Jesse Owens' triumph at the 1936 Berlin Games to Derek Redmond's inspiring finish with his father’s help in 1992. This visually stunning volume, brimming with photography, celebrates the hundred most significant moments in Summer Olympics history.

Founded in Paris in 1994 by Prosper and Martine Assouline, Assouline is the first luxury brand on culture. It began with the desire to create a new, contemporary style of book, using the couple's experienced eye for visually rich stories and compelling narratives.
Guided by their passion for knowledge, culture and travel, the Assoulines have since expanded their vision to 1,700 titles in three main collections, along with special editions and unique library accessories—a grand oeuvre of inspiring creations. Throughout the last quarter of a century, the brand has established a network of international boutiques in prominent locations across the globe.
With a distinguished team of creative talents—which includes the founders' son Alexandre—the brand continues to reinvent the notion of true luxury. Assouline’s roster of collaborators includes some of the world’s most respected brands, artists, photographers, writers and designers.
