Anquetil, Alone: The legend of the controversial Tour de France champion

Autor Paul Fournel Traducere de Nick Caistor
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 7 iun 2018
Shortlisted for the Sports Book Awards 2018 for Biography of the Year and Cycling Book of the Year

There are things he does alone, and things that he alone does.

Jacques Anquetil was a cyclist with an aristocratic demeanor and a relaxed attitude to rules and morals. His womanising and frank admissions of doping appalled 1960s French society, even as his five Tour de France wins enthralled it.

Paul Fournel was besotted with him from the start ("Too young to understand, I was nevertheless old enough to admire") and followed Anquetil's career with the passion of a fan and the eye of a poet.

In this stunningly original biography of a complex and divisive character, Fournel - author of the seminal V lo (or Need for the Bike)- blends the story of Anquetil's life with scenes from his own, to create a classic of cycling literature.
