This is a truly fascinating and well written history of the origin of bicycles. With the advent of the automobile its easy to ignore the great engineering triumph that the bicycle represented in the 1800s. This book, filled with wonderful illustrations, brings to life the trials, tribulations, and ultimate success of the bicycle pioneers. Imagine if the automobile was never invented?

Un magnífico estudio, quizá la mejor investigación histórica con la que me he topado. Es verdad que la fuente que utiliza es excepcional, pero también que los autores saben sacarle todo el partido posible. Una obra maestra, en verdad.
