Klappentext
This unique and beautifully presented book is a
delightful celebration of London's rich history and the
first-ever sports-specific guidebook of its kind of the
capital.
London's Sporting Heroes takes the reader on a journey
of discovery of the huge variety of plaques, statues and
murals dotted around the capital that commemorate
sports legends and many others, often unexpected, who
have starred in or shaped sport over the ages.
In which London park did both Roger Bannister and
Bradley Wiggins train? Where can you find all four
statues of 1966 World Cup hero Bobby Moore? Where
did he go to school? Where did tennis legend Fred Perry
live? Where was the Rugby Football Union founded?
Where was ping pong invented? Where did Henry
Cooper run a 'fruit and veg' shop? Where was Britain's
first cycling club founded and which famous author was
it named in honour of?
