Few sporting events can match the splendor and spectacle of the Tour de France--as teams of cyclists gather each July in quest of the coveted yellow jersey, ready to take on the 23-day chase through the French countryside lined with millions of spectators and the winding, steep climbs of the Pyrenees and Alps.
.Created with the endorsement of the Tour organization and carrying the official Tour de France logo, this rich anecdotal and photographic history depicts both the classic, almost mythic tales that have defined the event over the years as well as rare, untold glimpses from behind the scenes.
Made in USA.
