Le Tour: A History of the Tour de France
by Geoffrey WheatcroftGeoffrey Wheatcroft's hugely entertaining and well researched history of the Tour de France is already established as the definitive account of cycling's greatest event. Since the book was last published in 2007, much has changed. Bradley Wiggins' historic victory in 2012 - the first Briton ever to secure the yellow jersey - brought him a knighthood and garnered more interest in the race than ever before. Yet the months after were dominated by an even bigger story, as Tour legend and seven-time winner Lance Armstrong was stripped of his titles and confessed on Oprah to doping in each of his victories. Suddenly, everything that we thought we knew had happened was no longer true. In this new and comprehensively revised edition of the book, Wheatcroft not only brings his story of the Tour fully up to date to mark the race's 100th running in 2013, he also reflects on the changes brought about by the scandals that have rocked the sport to its core. Yet for all the controversies of modern times, he vividly captures the essential glory and romance of the heroes who battle to conquer one of sport's greatest challenges.

Le bushcraft, les 7 meilleurs conseils de compétences de bushcraft pour les débutants
by The BlokeheadLorsque l’homme quitte la métropole dépendante de la technologie et se lance dans une randonnée dans une région sauvage, des instincts primitifs viennent jouer. Le bushcraft, qui se réfère à l’ensemble des compétences utilisées pour se déplacer et survivre dans une zone sauvage, implique des méthodes primitives de collecte de nourriture et d’eau. Primitif dans le sens où il n’y a pas de dispositifs mécaniques ou d’équipements de haute technologie impliqués dans le processus ; on doit effectuer toutes les tâches de première main et tout fabriquer à partir de zéro. Le contenu de ce texte (et fondamentalement l’essence du bushcraft) est basé sur le mot-clé « survive » (survivre). C’est le but principal de chaque randonneur et c’est également le résultat final réussi de la randonnée. Pour S.U.R.V.I.V.E. (Survivre), il faut toujours garder à l’esprit ces lettres mnémoniques.
Le bushcraft: Coffret 101 de compétences de survie bushcraft
by The BlokeheadPour apprendre le bushcraft, il faut ajuster l’état d’esprit. Au lieu de passer par une série de processus mentaux complexes au moment de prendre une décision, il faut se reformer pour adopter un état plus simple et plus primitif. Il aide à prioriser les besoins les plus immédiats. Même si c’est juste pour un peu de temps, il faut faire l’expérience de l’indépendance et de l’autonomisation de la vie du moment et utiliser les forces de la nature à son avantage. Ce coffret 2 en 1 révèle le secret de la survie en bushcraft pour débutants et expérimentés, les compétences 101 dont vous avez besoin maintenant
Le bushcraft: Guide essentiel de Bushcraft 101 pour survivre comme un pro en région sauvage
by The BlokeheadDans un concours de survie entre le plus fort des hommes et l’intellectuel le plus intelligent, c’est celui qui est le plus adaptable au changement qui va gagner. La force et le QI peuvent affecter les résultats globaux de la pratique du bushcraft, mais ils ne sont pas les principales exigences de son succès. Si l’homme est prêt à s’aventurer dans les zones sauvages et à tourner ce qu’il trouve à son avantage, à lire la nature au lieu de la manipuler, alors sa randonnée deviendra un succès. Survivre en milieu sauvage VS le bushcraft Bien que similaires de nature, la survie en milieu sauvage et le bushcraft sont deux genres distincts. La confusion provient souvent de leurs caractéristiques qui se chevauchent, ce qui implique des moyens de survivre dans la nature. La principale distinction entre les deux est le temps passé dans les coins reculés. La survie en milieu sauvage utilise des tactiques de survie à court terme où l’objectif principal est de sortir de la forêt dès que possible (en moyenne 72 heures). Le bushcraft implique une immersion complète dans l’environnement naturel ; c’est un séjour à long terme.

Le retour à la bière...et au hockey: L'histoire d'Eric Molson
by Helen Antoniou<p>Pour la majorité des Canadiens, le nom de la famille Molson fait partie de l'essence même du Canada. Depuis 1786, année où John Molson fonda sa première brasserie à Montréal, il rime avec bière, hockey et philanthropie. Rares sont cependant ceux qui savent à quel point la famille est passée proche, ces dernières années, de perdre le contrôle de cette entreprise. Le retour à la bière...et au hockey dévoile des détails personnels de la vie et de l'œuvre d'Eric Molson, qui, non seulement, a sauvé l'entreprise familiale, mais lui a permis de connaître la prospérité comme brasserie de classe mondiale au vingt et unième siècle. <p>Bénéficiant d'un accès sans précédent à la famille Molson, Helen Antoniou retrace l'évolution d’Eric Molson depuis sa position de jeune maître brasseur passionné par les aspects chimiques de l'industrie brassicole jusqu'au poste de président du conseil d'administration de Molson. De nature pacifique, il a été aux prises avec de gros ego, a dû composer avec des situations de salles de conseil complexes et a même dû affronter un cousin déstabilisant qui s'efforçait de le tasser sur le côté. Se fondant sur une recherche poussée, Helen Antoniou relate dans le détail comment Eric, un homme introverti, a vaincu son aversion pour les conflits et a transformé un conglomérat en déroute pour le ramener à son activité principale, soit la fabrication de la bière, et finir par en faire un des plus grands brasseurs au monde. S'il a aujourd'hui passé le flambeau à ses fils, membres de la septième génération, sa vision résolue prévaut encore. <p>Récit passionnant du combat d'un homme à la barre d'un géant de l'univers brassicole, Le retour à la bière...et au hockey explique en quoi les principes directeurs d'Eric Molson ont influencé l'avenir de Molson, aussi bien l'entreprise que la famille.</p>
LeBron
by Jeff BenedictFrom the #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Dynasty and Tiger Woods comes the definitive biography of basketball superstar LeBron James, based on three years of exhaustive research and more than 250 interviews.LeBron James is the greatest basketball player of the twenty-first century, and he&’s in the conversation with Michael Jordan as the greatest of all time. The reigning king of the game and the first active NBA player to become a billionaire, LeBron wears the crown like he was born with it. Yet his ascent has been anything but effortless and predetermined— the truth is vastly more interesting than that. What makes LeBron&’s story so compelling is how he won his destiny despite overwhelmingly long odds, in a drama worthy of a Dickens novel. As a child, he was a scared and lonely little boy living a nomadic existence in Akron, Ohio. His mother, who had LeBron when she was sixteen, would sometimes leave him on his own. Destitute and fatherless, he missed close to one hundred days of school in the fourth grade. Desperate, his mother placed him with a family that gave him stability and put a basketball in his hands. LeBron tells the full, riveting saga of how a child adrift found the will to become a titan. Jeff Benedict, the most celebrated sports biographer of our time, paints a vivid picture of LeBron&’s epic origin story, showing the gradual rise of a star who, surrounded by a tight-knit group of teenage friends and adult mentors, accelerated into a speeding comet during high school. Today LeBron produces Hollywood films and television shows, has a social media presence that includes more than one hundred million followers, engages in political activism, takes outspoken stances on racism and social injustice, and transforms lives through his visionary philanthropy. He went from a lost boy in Akron to a beloved hero who uses his fortune to educate underprivileged children and lift up needy families—and brought home Cleveland&’s first NBA championship. But LeBron is more than just the origin story of a GOAT or a recap of his multi-championship, multi-MVP, gold medal–decorated career on the court. Benedict delves into LeBron&’s relationship with fame and power: how he has cultivated it, harnessed it, suffered from it, and leveraged it. In these pages, we go behind the scenes of LeBron&’s grappling with his seismic celebrity, from appearing on the cover of Sports Illustrated as a high school junior to The Decision, which briefly turned the nation against him. We also watch his evolution from a player who avoided politics and was widely criticized for not joining his teammates in protesting China&’s role in the Darfur genocide to becoming an athlete who partnered with President Obama; campaigned for Hillary Clinton; became an advocate against gun violence, racism, and voter suppression; and openly clashed with President Trump, empowering other athletes to speak out against social injustice. To capture LeBron&’s extraordinary life, Benedict conducted hundreds of interviews with the people who were involved with LeBron at different stages of his life. He also obtained thousands of pages of primary source documents and mined hundreds of hours of video footage. Destined to be the authoritative account of LeBron&’s life, LeBron is a gripping, inspiring, and unprecedented portrait of one of the world&’s most captivating figures.

LeBron's Dream Team
by James Lebron Bissinger BuzzRead an interview with Buzz Bissinger at hoopsaddict. com here. The SHOOTING STARS were a bunch of kids from Akron, Ohio-LeBron James and his best friends-who first met on a youth basketball team of the same name when they were ten and eleven years old. United by their love of the game and their yearning for companionship, they quickly forged a bond which would carry them through thick and thin (a lot of thin) and, at last, to the brink of a national championship. They were a motley group who faced challenges all too typical of inner-city America. LeBron grew up without a father and had moved with his mother more than a dozen times by the age of 10. Willie McGee, the quiet one, had left both his parents behind in Chicago to be raised by his older brother in Akron. Dru Joyce was outspoken, and his dad, who was ever-present, would end up coaching all five of the boys in high school. Sian Cotton, who also played football, was the happy-go-lucky enforcer, while Romeo Travis was unhappy, bitter, even surly, until he finally opened himself up to the bond his team mates offered. In the summer after seventh grade, the SHOOTING STARS tasted glory when they qualified for a national championship tournament in Memphis. But they lost their focus, and had to go home early. They promised each other they would stay together and do whatever it took to win a national title. They had no idea how hard it would be to pursue that promise. In the years that followed, they would endure jealousy, hostility, exploitation, resentment from the black community (because they went to a "white" high school), and the consequence of their own over-confidence. Not least, they would all have to wrestle with LeBron's outsize success, which brought too much attention and even a whiff of scandal their way. But together these five boys became men as they sought a national championship. .
