Description

Excerpt from Cycling in Europe: An Illustrated Hand-Book of Information for the Use of Touring Cyclists This little book has been prepared to answer the demands of members of the League of American Wheelmen, who, from year to year. in increasing numbers, extend their cycling tours into the countries of the Old World, and hence find need of a practical guide by which the few difficulties of their journey may be lightened and its pleasures enhanced. Mr. Elwell, by whose willing courtesy we are able to produce this volume, is a veteran tourist, having supervised the journeys of many cycling parties through European countries, and what he has here written may be taken as the result of personal observation by a painstaking and experienced man. It is believed to contain no important errors, and should any minor ones be discovered, they will be corrected in future editions. "Cycling in Europe" is the first volume of a series of useful little books, the publication of which has been planned by the officers of the L. A. W., under the general title of the "Cyclist's Library," and designed to cover the prominent themes which relate to cycling and tend to encourage the use of the wheel: - this series being of course quite distinct in character and purpose from the "Good Roads Library" - the several volumes of which have placed the League in the forefront of good roads agitation within the United States. Further volumes of the Cyclist's Library will in due time be announced in the pages of the L. A. W. Bulletin, and with the increasing growth of the League, which seems sure to follow the encouragement of local organization in the different States, it is believed that these little books will have the wide circulation to which their value and importance entitle them.
