‘Masters Track: A History’ now searchable online
Len Olson’s history of masters track, published nearly five years ago, is now searchable online via a new Google function. Go to Google Books, type in “masters track Len Olson” — and voila! You have access to the complete contents of the book (some books you can read cover to cover). Google allows you to search a book for specific names, events, meets, etc. It’s magical.
Of course, you have to create a Google account (a free process).
But one you’re signed up, you can look for your name (or mine or Payton Jordan‘s) and see what Len (and I) said about you.
Of course, thousands (and eventually hundreds of thousands) of books in the public domain and volunteered by various publishers and libraries will be online in this way. It’s the opening of a new generation of search results.
