Rendition In Pursuance Of Books Every Second Counts

In Paris on 25 July 1999, Lance Armstrong made world headlines with the most stunning comeback in the history of sport, winning the Tour de France in the fastest ever time after battling against life-threatening testicular cancer just eighteen months previously. A few months after that historic victory, he became a father for the first time. His first book, It's Not About the Bike , charted his journey back to life and went on to become an international bestseller, and to win the William Hill Sports Book of the Year 2000. Now, in this much-anticipated follow-up, Armstrong shares more details of his remarkable life story, including four more Tour de France wins, an Olympic medal, and the births of his twin daughters Grace and Isabelle. Never shy of controversy, Lance Armstrong is a genuine global sports superstar and one of cycling's greatest ever champions. Here he offers us his life philosophy - his thoughts on thoughts on training, competing, winning and failure. He also recounts the work done for the Foundation he set up following his dramatic recovery and introduces further inspirational tales of cancer survival. Every Second Counts is another extraordinary and awe-inspiring book from a man who strives every day to meet life's momentous challenges.

Rate Of Books Every Second Counts

I spent less time reading this book than Lance spends in the saddle on a given day but that hardly makes this a bad book, just a fast read. As with It's Not About the Bike: My Journey Back to Life, I read this book almost all in one night, then woke up the next morning and finished it off. As with the previous book, it is incredibly readable and pages fly by.Reading this book in 2011 forces a different perspective and more thought than if one had read it in 2004. Lance is under investigation

This is an author that I wanted to hate, when I was half way through the book, because much of what he says comes off sounding arrogant and self-centered. He talks of his accomplishments, his ceaseless drive, how unfairly he was treated by those who thought he was doping, his generosity, his many homes, and then goes on to describe how hes just a regular guy (like the reader is suppose to believe that he really believes that.) But I have to concede that his incredible accomplishments entitle him

Much less powerful than the first book . . . but then again, how could it not be? The cancer stuff really makes the first book moving, and (kind of awful to say) it's just not as interesting without the life-or-death urgency of the cancer storyline. People who read the first book wanted more, but this book was a poor attempt at that. It was clearly written on a tight time scale and dealt with topics that couldn't possibly be as amazing as those in the first . . . everything in the book is, by

I enjoyed this book, although people may feel differently about this man today. I still believe he is one of the greatest athletes the world has ever seen. The fact is cycling is a dirty sport, so my view is he still beat everyone fairly because they were all on something. People need to get over the doping, it happens. It does not take away from his determination and heart to win. A good look into the mindset of a champion.

Wow. What a life, what a career. This is the stuff legends are made of. This is the story of survival, the story of persistence. As they say, Fall seven times, stand up eight. This apies aptly for Lance Armstrong the champion.The book has been written in a very lucid style and engaging style. By taking us through his journey on the personal front and during the Tours (De France), he has made us realise what it takes to be a champion. Controversies aside, he is a champion. Salute!

Read this like an idiot years ago. I live in France and defended this sod! What a muppet.
