Like Alpe d'Huez, Ventoux is an integral part of the Tour de France. Its 1,910-meter-high conical peak is visible from far across the surrounding countryside. With its altitude and the cooling Mistral from the north, it's often snow-capped in April and can cause unpredictable weather conditions all year round. This sumptuous picture book captures the beauty and terror of an area that has claimed lives and made heroes.
