Book Review: Excellent Overview
Summary: 5 Stars
This is certainly not the most detailed or focused book on the great bicycles from Schwinn, but this is a handsome, even-handed overview of the company and its bikes. With great color photographs, advertising art, catalog images, and historical photographs, this book is informative and delightful.
Large format, squarish paperback, 160 pp on glossy stock. Illustrations throughout.
