My Pursuit of Lance Armstrong
David Walsh
Simon & Schuster
[Gifted Kindle ebook]
I really enjoyed reading this book, it had lots of meaty facts to chew on and was a rather shocking insight into professional cycling.
The proofreading in this Amazon USA purchased ebook is absolutely shocking and seriously detracts from the reading experience. I wrote to 'Simon & Schuster' and asked for a proofread version, they did not reply. I tweeted David Walsh and again no reply.
The content was good, but because of the proofreading this book gets a two out of five.
2/5

Dear Amazon
My wife purchased for my birthday 'Seven Deadly Sins: My Pursuit of Lance Armstrong' by David Walsh. I had other books waiting to read to it took my quite sometime until I started to read it.
The book is shockingly proof-read, this made the reading experience not good at all. I wrote to the publisher and asked for them to send me a proof-read version, no reply. So then I tweeted David Walsh and asked for his help, again no reply.
So now I am writing to you. This is an inferior product and an embarrassment to Amazon, I would like please ether my money back or a replacement. It was my plan to lend the eBook to my wife, she is a journalist and this kind of shoddy work will totally spoil her reading experience.
So please can you help me.
Your faithfully
