Description

Following the success of The Walker's Anthology and The Railway Anthology, we're continuing this series and applying the same formula to the subject of cycling and journeys by bicycle. We draw on the writings of more than 50 literary figures and famous personalities on the subject of cycling and journeys by bicycle - J.G. Ballard, John Betjeman, Quentin Blake, Arthur Conan Doyle, E.M. Forster, Ernest Hemingway, Jerome K Jerome, D.H. Lawrence, Somerset Maugham, Dervla Murphy, Eric Newby, Dorothy Sayers, Mark Twain, H.G. Wells and Tour de France winner Bradley Wiggins among many others. This entertaining hardback anthology will appeal to cyclists and armchair travelers alike and make the perfect gift.

Great experience and I have zero concerns. They communicated through the shipping process and if there was any hiccups in it, they let me know. Books arrived in perfect condition as well as being fairly priced. 10/10 recommend. I will definitely shop here again!

The shipping was just superior

The shipping was just superior; not even one of the books was in contact with the shipping box -anywhere-, not even a corner or the bottom, so all the books arrived in perfect condition. The international shipping took around 2 weeks, so pretty great too.

Found a hard to get book…

Finding a hard to get book on Booksplease and with it not being an over inflated price was great. Ordering was really easy with updates on despatch. The book was packaged well and in great condition. I will certainly use them again.
