Book Reviews of Bicycle: The History
Book Review: Comprehensive early history, Really liked it, but seemed like abrupt ending.
Summary: 5 Stars
Be prepared. This was what I was looking for.. a very detailed but readable history of bicycles. Understandably I guess I was hoping it would go on in the same amount of detail through more recent history. But as the number of brands and associated stories exploded once basic designs had been settled, it is very understanding that it did not stay as detailed at the end. A good read.
