Samenvatting

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?
