Autor Hugh Dauncey
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 20 noi 2012
This volume aims to provide a balanced and detailed survey of the complex sports and hobby industry that is cycling in France. By identifying key events, practices, stakeholders, and institutions in the history of French cycling, the author presents an interdisciplinary look at how cycling has been significant in French society and culture since the late nineteenth century. French Cycling presents its arguments in clear language and uses a wide range of sources, making it an essential contribution to the study of French popular culture since 1900.

Recenzii

“Well conceived, cogently argued and timely, this book will be required reading for anyone with a scholarly interest in the history and sociology of French sport and leisure, and, given cycling’s social and cultural centrality, all those who seek to make sense of France and ‘Frenchness’ since the later 19th century.”

“Dauncey offers a lively, comprehensive history of cycling in France from the first introduction of bicycles in the 19th century to the present. . . . Rich in local color and entertaining anecdotes, this book is clearly and engagingly written. . . . Highly recommended.”
