Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Following the first modern-day Olympic Games in 1896, the members of the newly formed International Olympic Committee set out to find the perfect spot to host the first Olympic Games outside Greece. After debate, Paris was the winning city and the games were held in conjunction with the World's Fair of 1900. This book looks at the famous places in Paris that were used as venues in the 1900 Summer Olympic Games, as well as the events and athletes that made history. Project Webster represents a new publishing paradigm, allowing disparate content sources to be curated into cohesive, relevant, and informative books. To date, this content has been curated from Wikipedia articles and images under Creative Commons licensing, although as Project Webster continues to increase in scope and dimension, more licensed and public domain content is being added. We believe books such as this represent a new and exciting lexicon in the sharing of human knowledge.
