Cycling in Victorian Ireland by Brian Griffin

This book examines the social history of cycling in 19th-century Ireland. Drawing from the numerous Irish and British cycling journals and newspapers of the period, this book illustrates the profound impact which the introduction of the bicycle and the tricycle had on the lives of Irish men, women and children. It also features cartoons and photographs.
