Leading cycling writer William Fotheringham presents the biography
of the greatest cyclist in history, Eddy Merckx--the extraordinary
man who is to cycling what Muhammad Ali is to boxing. This
definitive history chronicles his life, examining both the ups and
the downs. Throughout his professional career Merckx amassed an
astonishing 445 victories and exhibited a remorseless sense of
domination that created his legend. But his triumphs only tell half
of a story that includes horrific injury, a doping controversy, and
tragedy. To discover the background of the Belgian cyclist's former
invincibility, the author spoke with those who were there at the
time and those who knew Merckx best. This is the singular tale of a
man whose fear of failure would drive him to reach the highest
pinnacles before ultimately destroying himself.
