French Revolutions

One of the funniest books about sport ever written

Sunday Times

Moore is a talented and funny writer, who, through a combination of slapstick, absurd simile and a healthy suspicion of French civilisation, gives us something to laugh at on every page

Daily Telegraph

Embarrassingly laugh-out-loud

Daily Express

Moore's floundering attempts to emulate the Herculean feats of his cycling heroes unfold with eyewetting hilarity

The Times

Moore unleashes a high-energy torrent of astute observation and hilarious self-deprecation. Hailed a the new Bill Bryson, he is in fact a writer of considerably more substance... The jokes come thick and fast

Irish Times

Bill Bryson on two wheels... A one-liner every other line...not so much witty travelogue as self-examination in a joke-heavy trial by fire

Independent

Moore skilfully interweaves laugh-out-loud set pieces with anecdotes from the Tour's history...a great summer read. Very, very funny

Scotland on Sunday

This hilarious account is laden with anecdotes, all conveyed in joyous style
