"Oppy" The life of Sir Hubert Opperman
Melbourne Rare Book Week
Hubert "Oppy" Opperman was a sporting icon, a cycling phenomenon whose epic feats of endurance captivated the cycling world. Until now, Oppy has never been the subject of a complete biography. By peeling away decades of mythology, Daniel Oakman tells Opperman's story like never before. As well as vividly retelling his sporting triumphs, this book is the first to consider the legacy of Opperman's post-cycling career.
