5.0 out of 5 stars Bikes from the beginning of time..., September 13, 2000
This review is from: Evolution of the Bicycle, Vol. 1, with Price Guide (Paperback)
This is a great book to see wonderful pictures and to experience what made some of the earliest bicyles different. Each picture comes with a small description of the bike, such as year and name. This is quite helpful in determining if you really bought what you think you did.

This book is a must for every bike Enthusiast, and a gotta have for all vintage or modern bike collectors. I give it 5 stars!

This review is from: Evolution of the Bicycle, Vol. 1, with Price Guide (Paperback)
I wish they would reissue this book. It's a good quick reference book BUT not everything is 100% correct as the pictures are submitted by owners rather then factory pictures and literature. It's still an excellent FUN book to look at and refresh the memory with. I recommend, I wouldn't give mine up.
