Биографии
"Cycling Giants" masterfully chronicles the evolution of professional cycling through the extraordinary athletes who transformed the sport from its humble beginnings to its current global status. The book uniquely divides cycling history into three distinct eras: the pioneering phase (1903-1950), the modernization period (1950-1990), and the globalization era (1990-present), each marked by legendary figures who pushed the boundaries of human endurance and athletic achievement.
Through meticulous research, including previously unopened archives and newly translated European sports journalism, the book reveals how champions like Maurice Garin, Jacques Anquetil, and Eddy Merckx revolutionized competitive cycling. Their stories are expertly woven with analyses of how advancements in training methods, equipment technology, and race strategies evolved through generations, demonstrating the sport's technical progression alongside its cultural impact on European reconstruction and international sporting culture.
The narrative skillfully balances technical aspects with engaging storytelling, examining how these cycling giants influenced not just athletic achievement but also broader societal changes. The book's comprehensive approach covers everything from the physical demands of grand tour racing to the evolution of sports medicine and bicycle design, making it an invaluable resource for both cycling enthusiasts and sports historians while maintaining accessibility for general readers interested in the human stories behind these remarkable athletic achievements.
