Journal of Sport History, Vol. 42, No. 2 (Summer 2015): 264-265. Permalink. © 2015 Journal of Sport history and the North American Society for Sport History. Used with permission. Journal of Sport History Based on a variety of historical sources, and including a succinct yet comprehensive bib- liography, numerous appendixes, as well as a full and complete index, Polo in Argentina will be of great use to those in need of concrete and easily accessible data on the sport. Scholars seeking to delve into deeper issues and greater analysis will find this volume a useful and reliable reference for further research. The book raises many questions that should be taken up by other researchers. Issues discussed by Laffaye, like the militarization of the game in the 1930s and the conflicting relationship between Peron and the polo clubs in the 1940s and ’50s, deserve to be examined in greater depth.
