A history of American marathons, this book encompasses more than a century since the fledgling days of the footrace in the 1890s to the contemporary marathons that have become corporate-sponsored institutions. It focuses on the role of New York City which hosted the first US marathon in 1896.

Pamela Cooper writes for, and serves as historical advisor to, Runners World magazine. She has published articles on the marathon footrace in the Journal of Sport History and the International Journal of the History of Sport.
