Summary: 4 Stars
Whew! What a tome! Oversized paperback of over 600 pages and thin paper at that. Filled with any and everything about bicycles you could possible imagine. Lots of terrific illustrations and pictures, many from very early times. Much so darned technical, about all the zillion parts of a bike, that I must admit I skimmed over. Pages and pages of footnotes, a glossary and a huge, huge bibliography containing even videos and artwork and music about bikes. This book just leaves no stone unturned in discussing its subject. It's more than you want to know. Even recipes, which of course I made, two of which were horrible; the pasta carbonera and fruit punch delicious. Perry is to be commended for the extraordinary amount of work done to write this treatise.
