Recenzii
Pure joy. Happy, generous, funny, kind, wise and full of fresh air. An absolutely wonderful book.
Engaging, entertaining and enlightening
A glorious celebration of the wonder and absurdity of cycling
A treasure trove of line-drawn persuasion
Cartoonist and cyclist Dave Walker has put together this hilarious coffee table book full of cycling-related illustrations.
I would be very surprised if there wasn't at least one page in this book with which any subculture of cyclist could not identify.
With luck, Walker may be at the forefront of a renaissance of the art of cycling cartoons. I for one would be happy to see more exponents of the art showing off their talents if they are as good as this.
I laughed out loud... There's so much in this book that will appeal to any rider.
Dave combines artistic ability with insight to show just why a picture is worth a thousand words. Engaging, entertaining and enlightening without relying on text is a rare ability.
