Bicycle: The History by David V. Herlihy

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?
