WOODLAND, Les, Cycling Heroes: The Golden Years, 1995, Springfield Books, 143 pp

This hardcover book includes chapters on 19 cyclists : Jacques Anquetil; Federico Bahamontes; Louison Bobet; Beryl Burton; Fausto Coppi; Jan Derksen; Shay Elliott; Barry Hoban; Jan Janssen; Hennie Kuiper; Peter Post; Raymond Poulidor; Brian Robinson; Tom Simpson; Wim van Est; Rik van Looy; Keetie van Oosten-Hage; Rik van Steenbergen; and Graham Webb

While there isn’t a chapter on Merckx, he’s mentioned throughout the text. The most interesting aspect of this charming book is the chapters on some of the lesser known heroes of the past decades. He tells of Shay Elliot’s suicide, and Brian Robinson, one of England’s earliest Continental racers.
