The History of Human-Powered Monocycles (Volume I: 1867 to 1905): The Invention and Evolution of Riding Inside One Wheel


Overview

Jack Wiley - the bestselling and most prolific writer of unicycle books in the world - now delivers the first book devoted to the fascinating history of human-powered monocycles and includes inventor's patents from 1869 to 1905. One writer called the monocycle with the rider inside the wheel ""The world's most useless invention."" Others described monocycles as weird and difficult to construct and ride. The use of monocycles at the 2008 Beijing Olympics shows that they do have limited usefulness even though this has never been for efficient transportation. This book includes the history and development of all kinds of human-powered monocycles that can be ridden from inside the wheel with just one wheel touching the ground.
