In his book, award-winning author Richard Moore traces each story line of the 1986 Tour de France to its source through innumerable interviews-not only with LeMond and Hinault in their own homes but also with teammates, rivals, race directors, journalists, sponsors, and promoters. Told from these many perspectives, the alliances, backroom deals, and broken promises divulged in Slaying the Badger build to the stunning climax of the 1986 Tour de France.
