Sprinting Through No Man's Land

a bit of history sprinkled with heart-pumping racing.

This is a wonderful book that will keep your adrenaline racing as you rip through the pages. If you are a cyclist you'll be a awed at the sheer athleticism and grit of these riders. Awesome book.

The Great War has ended and France is worn and weary. The return of the Tour de France is proposed, and many get on board with the idea. It's a true Tour de France; the route takes bicyclists all around the border of France. Many roads and even complete towns have been destroyed in the war, and the bicyclists are not well prepared for the long race, but the 1919 Tour de France provides an opportunity for the French people to rally around their favorite riders and to celebrate France.
