Wimbledon - Visions of the Championships is a
breathtaking photographic celebration of the world's
oldest and most famous tennis championships. A lavish
coffee-table book from the team behind Centre Court -
The Jewel in Wimbledon's Crown (winner of the 'Best
Illustrated Book' award at the 2010 British Sports Book
Awards), Wimbledon - Visions of the Championships
features sensational behind the scenes pictures of
Rafael Nadal, Roger Federer, Andy Murray, the Williams
sisters, Maria Sharapova and many more current tennis
stars. Beyond that it captures the magical atmosphere of
those two weeks in June - the quintessential Englishness
of it all with the players all in white, the pristine
green striped lawns and purple and white flowers, Pimms
and strawberries and cream, ballboys, ballgirls and
rain! The book is compiled by world-renowned and
multi-award winning sports photographer Bob Martin who,
along with his team of the world's top tennis
photographers, was granted exclusive and unprecedented
access to the 2010 Championships in the making of this
stunning official book. |
