A great read.....

I posted this in the Sundays show and tell thread also, but in case you've missed it thought it might be better appreciated in this section.

It's a really great read with some fascinating tales of the first tour and early cycle racing.
Does anyone have any other books on the subject that they can recommend?

Didn't know of this book yet. Thanks for the heads-up!

My favorite so far is Benjo Maso's "We were all gods", the story of the 1948 TdF. Not sure if it has been translated into English completely, but a couple of chapters are available online.
