Tour de France 100: A Photographic History of the World's Greatest Race

Tour de France 100: A Photographic History of the World's Greatest Race Overview

The Tour de France, first staged in 1903, is the world’s greatest sports spectacle, packed with heart-stopping drama, legendary rivalries, bitter tragedy, and outright farce. In its 100 runnings—the race was interrupted twice by war—it has cast its spotlight on some of the greatest athletes of all time, who fought their way across France’s magnificent landscape in pursuit of victory and the yellow jersey worn by the Tour’s overall leader.

In Tour de France 100, award-winning journalist Richard Moore celebrates all that is great, fantastic, amusing, outrageous, and overwhelming in the Tour through illuminating text and a cascade of defining images from the race’s extraordinary history.

Vividly reproduced photos abound of heroes of the race, from pioneers like Octave Lapize and Eugène Christophe—first to wear the yellow jersey—to legendary warriors like Eddy Merckx and Miguel Indurain. The great battles—Fausto Coppi versus Gino Bartali, Greg LeMond versus Bernard Hinault—are richly told, as is the shocking death of Tom Simpson and the controversial disgrace of Lance Armstrong. And the high drama of the modern era, represented by super-sprinter Mark Cavendish and the droll Bradley Wiggins, is fully covered as well.

There is nothing else that compares to the Tour, and Tour de France 100 is a superb celebration, as well as a keepsake of the Tour’s 100th edition that will be treasured by all cyclists and bike racing fans.

The Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 5 Book for Digital Photographers (Voices That Matter)

The Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 5 Book for Digital Photographers (Voices That Matter) Overview

 

Since Lightroom first launched, Scott Kelby's The Lightroom Book for Digital Photographers has been the world's #1 best-selling Lightroom book. In this latest version for Lightroom 5, Scott uses his same step-by-step, plain-English style and layout to make learning Lightroom easy and fun. Scott doesn't just show you which sliders do what, and he doesn't just cover the newest features of Lightroom (though, of course, he does that, too, with discussions of the Advanced Healing Brush, Smart Previews, Upright, and the Radial Gradient). Instead, by using the following three simple yet brilliant techniques that make it just an incredible learning tool, this book shows you how to create your own photography workflow using Lightroom:

 

•  Scott shares his own personal settings and studio-tested techniques. He trains thousands of Lightroom users every year, and knows firsthand what really works and what doesn't.
•  The entire book is laid out in a real workflow order with everything step by step, so you can begin using Lightroom like a pro from the start.
•  What really sets this book apart is the last chapter. This is where Scott dramatically answers his #1 most-asked Lightroom question, which is: "Exactly what order am I supposed to do things in, and where does Photoshop fit in?"
• The Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 5 Book for Digital Photographers is the first and only book to bring the whole process together in such a clear, concise, and visual way.
