This is an idyllic chronicle of a three-week-long bicycling holiday in
Switzerland in 1896. The author and a companion travelled 1,000
kilometers around the beautiful Swiss countryside, their experiences and
travails encapsulated within this profusely illustrated volume for the
enjoyment and edification of cycling enthusiasts both contemporary and
future. "A Pedaller Abroad" is highly recommended for modern cyclists
and fans of classic travel writing alike, and it would make for a worthy
addition to any collection. Many vintage books such as this are becoming
increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this book now in
an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially
commissioned new introduction on the History of the Bicycle.
