Peter was struggling as a single father in a foreign country—unsettled by the sudden move away from a traditional job, and completely baffled by the society around him.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eHis only plan was to ride L'Etape du Tour, the challenging amateur leg of the Tour de France. In an effort to find some new friends in the community—and a bike for the race—he discovered the region's small bicycle factory. He was soon spending his days there, photographing his custom bike being built, meeting the locals, and learning about the rich traditions of artisan craftsmanship.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eTrying to enjoy the simple things and become a better father, Peter slowed down and started to reflect seriously on history, industry, and the structure of our modern economy. He and his daughters finally began to put down roots and understand the beauty and calm of a small-scale existence—and a very different approach to excellence and the well-lived life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis is one man's compelling, informative, and funny story about the wisdom of children, the nature of work today, and the science of bicycles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Penguin Random House NZ","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46651378401516,"sku":"9780670077946","price":36.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/15452923482426.jpg?v=1752347113"}],"url":"https:\/\/bookhero.live\/collections\/peter-holmes-a-court.oembed","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
