Descrizione A Will within a Wheel
Six-day races, record-breaking rides, and renegade leagues are at the heart of this fascinating short fiction collection that explores women's competitive cycling in the late Victorian era. Each of the stories contained in this meticulously researched collection focuses on a distinct racing event and the individual "ladies" who competed in them-like the indomitable Tillie Anderson-who mustered every muscle and every ounce of strength to prove that women had a place in the world of cycling. Overcoming constant scrutiny, judgement, chauvinism, exploitation, and even danger, these racers pedaled their way into annals of feminism, freedom, and cycling history.
