Few champions have astonished the world as much as Lance Armstrong.
A cancer survivor who went on to win the Tour de France an
unprecedented seven times, he is an inspiration to millions. Now
the full story can be told. With complete access to Armstrong, and
to his inner circle, and drawing on interviews with family members
and training partners, coaches and celebrities, team-mates and
rivals, friends and foes, sportswriter John Wilcockson tells of
those who helped Armstrong along the way - including his mother
Linda, his ex-wife Kristin and one-time fiancee Sheryl Crow - and
explores the traits of character that made Armstrong unique. The
story of Lance Armstrong is one of brutal, painful effort, of
natural brilliance, of relentless ambition, of extraordinary glory.
His achievement is all the more stunning for its unconventionality:
a boy from small-town America who beat the world. Brash and
fiercely competitive, Armstrong has never been without close
friends or bitter enemies. His achievements have been dogged by
accusations of doping, accusations of secrecy, and by questions
about how triumph on such a grand scale could be possible -
questions that are addressed head on in LANCE ARMSTRONG. Tracing
the highs and lows, and bringing alive the drama of the races in
which Armstrong smashed expectations time after time, LANCE
ARMSTRONG gives the complete story of a matchless champion.
