I thought I may start a cycling book review thread given how many people interested in cycling we have here. I'll write up a review of The Rider and Sweat of the Gods soon but what prompted me to start this thread is I saw that John Foot, author of Calcio has written a history of Italian cycling called Pedalare! Pedalare! and was wondering if anyone had had a look at it.
Calcio was a really good book and I'm a little suprised to see that he is a specialist in Italian history as opposed to a football specialist. So my doubts about a football writer writing about cycling have been pretty much assuaged.
