On the heels of Lance Armstrong’s decision to not fight doping charges and his lifetime ban from USADA, Ballantine Bantam Dell has moved up the release of Tyler Hamilton’s tell-all book, which is titled ‘THE SECRET RACE: Inside the Hidden World of the Tour de France: Doping, Cover-ups, and Winning at All Costs’.
The book is described as a definitive look at the world of professional cycling and the doping issue surrounding this sport, by former Olympic gold medalist Tyler Hamilton with New York Times bestselling author of Lance Armstrong’s War, Daniel Coyle.
Now on sale September 5, 2012, ’THE SECRET RACE’ will offer the first deeply detailed window into one of the defining sports stories of our time as it continues to unfold. The narrative centers on Tyler Hamilton, longtime teammate of Lance Armstrong and former world No. 1 ranked rider, and seven-time Tour rider, who spent ten years at the center of it all–going from amateur racer to hero to key witness in one of the biggest doping cases in sports history.
