📚 Bicycles & Cycling

22 works · ordered by editions in print

The machine and the ride together: the design and history of the bicycle, and the way a two-wheeled frame changed commuting and cities.

Below are the 22 works carrying the subject bicycles in the Open Library catalogue with the most editions in print. Author and first year are as the record states them; a missing year means the record does not carry one, not that the book is undated. Novels set in the subject are left out, because a list of historical fiction is not a list of history. Where one author dominates the reprint counts, no more than two of their titles appear.
