Description

From effortless forehands to red-carpet fame—and everything in between—Federer tells the story of a life like no other, in a way only Assouline can. The first visual biography on Roger Federer—produced over two years in close collaboration with the tennis legend himself and his wife, Mirka—offers readers a sweeping look into Roger’s private moments, personality, and record-breaking career. Featuring never-before-published photographs and memorabilia from his childhood as well as snaps from Roger's and Mirka’s own camera rolls, the book also includes handwritten insights from Roger that intimately capture his journey on and off the court.

A part of the proceeds of FEDERER will benefit the Roger Federer Foundation, supporting childhood educational projects in Southern Africa and Switzerland.

PROCESS MAKES THE DIFFERENCE

Since its beginnings in 1994, Assouline has been dedicated to creating books that are as informational as they are beautiful works of art. The respect for the product and the process of creation is evident in every facet – the traditional technique of hand-binding covers, the imagery that transports the reader to another place and time, the luxurious thickness of each page. Known worldwide for bringing luxury to the publishing industry, Assouline produces one-of-a-kind books on fashion, art, architecture, photography, design, and travel, weaving a story of L’Art de Vivre with every publication.

The vision, since day one, has been to create books that would complete a well curated library. Today, well appointed homes of the eternally well-dressed, are likely to have an expansive collection of Assouline books in their homes or offices.
