Yet their part in the on-field and off-field narrative of Australian sport has been left unwritten. Until now. People of the Boot: The Untold Stories of Australian Jews in Sporttells the remarkable and unheralded stories of how an ethnic community forged their own distinct path in Australian sport. It draws together some of Australia's brightest journalists, sport writers, editors, researchers and broadcasters to offer fresh insights into a remarkable tale of multicultural success.
