| Résumé : | Thospson has written an engaging, nicely paced account of France's world famous cycle race : his writings is lively and full of detail and excitement. But he has done much more than simply narrate the story of the Tour. His book sets the race - its history, its participants, and its meaning - firmly in its shifting national and cultural contexts. The sections dealing with professional cycling as a form of labor and with the tour's place in France's troubled twentieth century are absolutely first-rate : insightful and original. This is the best history of the tour that we have and are likely to have a many years, a work of scholarship that deserves to find a broad general readership. |
