Aux Armes! by David Owen
As much a cultural appraisal as a history of Gallic athletic endeavour, Sport and the French is well-researched, witty and enlightening in equal measure.
David Owen is a former sports editor of the Financial Times, for which he worked for twenty years in the USA, Canada, France and Great Britain. A leading authority on the Olympic movement, he wrote a weekly column for the insidethegames.biz website for many years. His horseracing book, Foinavon: The Story of the Grand National's Biggest Upset, won the Dr Tony Ryan Book Award. His other books include Thomi Keller: A Life in Sport, Rain Starts Play, A Short History of Cricket at Everdon Hall, and No Snail.
