Description
For 17 days all eyes were on Vancouver! From the front row at every venue, the team at The Canadian Press, host news agency at the Games, captured in photos and words every moment in our country’s most successful winter Olympics.
From opening to closing ceremonies, Canada’s Olympic Diary documents the Canadian experience at the Vancouver Olympics.Written and illustrated by Canadian Press reporters and photographers covering the Games, this stunning full-colour keepsake provides a record of the achievements?and the disappointments?of Canadian athletes as they competed in the biggest event of their lives.
The book also chronicles the lead-up to the Games and how Vancouver came to be host, followed by chapters focusing on each day’s events, broken out by event and focusing on Canadian athletes.
This is a must-have book for all proud Canadians who cheered on our athletes!
