'Federer'

The first of its kind, this visual biography of Roger Federer is a heartfelt tribute to fans, family, and tennis itself. Produced in close collaboration with the tennis legend and his wife Mirka over a two year period, this indispensable volume by Assouline offers readers awe-inspiring insight into the tennis star’s private moments, personality, and record-breaking career. The book delves into the grace and determination that have come to define one of the greatest global icons of our era. ‘Federer’ includes images from Roger and Mirka’s own collections, along with handwritten insights from the sportsman himself.
