James Naismith's "Book To Live By" with Handwritten Notes
The personal thoughts and insights of one of sports true geniuses are available here in James Naismith's personal "Book To Live By". The book is a panorama of Naismith's intricate beliefs and ideas, consisting of many typed pages with extensive handwritten notes outlining their borders and sentences. Topics range from a large amount on indoor sports to exercise, the human body, reflexes, skill levels health and schooling, amongst many other things. Not surprisingly, there are also some self-made graphs and charts included in the pages. The material seems to be compiled between the years of 1910-1930 and is collected and stored in a black loose-leaf binder. As the 100+ page personal log attests, Naismith wasn't above needless doodling and newspaper comics.
