Around the World on Two Wheels"Peter Zheutlin's thoroughly researched account will make you wish you'd been around to catch a glimpse of the extraordinary woman as she went wheeling by."

"Peter Zheutlin's thoroughly researched account will make you wish you'd been around to catch a glimpse of the extraordinary woman as she went wheeling by." -Bill Littlefield, National Public Radio's Only A Game Until 1894 there were no female sport stars, no product endorsement deals, and no young mothers with the chutzpah to circle the globe on a bicycle. Annie Londonderry changed all of that. When Annie left Boston in June of that year, she was a brash young lady with a 42-pound bicycle, a revolver, a change of underwear, and a dream of freedom. She was also a feisty mother of three who had become the center of what one newspaper called "one of the most novel wagers ever made" a high-stakes bet between two wealthy merchants that a woman could not ride around the world on a bicycle. The epic journey that followed took the connection between athletics and commercialism to dizzying new heights, and turned Annie Londonderry into a symbol of women's equality. A vastly entertaining blend of social history, high adventure, and maverick marketing, Around the World on Two Wheels is an unforgettable portrait of courage, imagination, and tenacity. "Annie was a remarkable woman and well worth getting to know." -Booklist "A wonderful telling of one of the most intriguing, offbeat, and until now, lost chapters in the history of cycling." -David Herlihy, author of Bicycle: The History

Good quality and value for my son!
Number of Items: 5, Color: Black/Sport Grey/Charcoal, Size: Large
I bought the Gildan Men’s Crew T-Shirts multipack on Amazon for my 12-year-old son, who is on the heavier side and thus sometimes difficult to shop for. Pre-teen kids grow fast and go through clothes quickly, so I didn’t want to spend a lot of money on basics he’ll probably outgrow in a year. These shirts are really affordable, especially for a multipack, and the quality is surprisingly good for the price. The fabric is soft and comfortable, and my son says they feel good to wear all day at school. They’re lightweight and did not shrink after washing. I also like that the shirts don’t get stretched out like some cheaper T-shirts do. The fit works well for him too. They’re simple, classic crew neck tees that can be worn on their own or layered under hoodies and jackets. We’ve used them for school and just everyday wear. Another thing I appreciate is that they’re easy to care for. I just toss them in the wash and dryer and they come out looking fine every time. Overall, these are a great value. If you need affordable, comfortable basic T-shirts for a growing kid (or an adult!), this pack is definitely worth buying.

Nice

My husband really likes the quality of these t-shirts. They fit nicely and dont have a sagging neckline as some t-shirts tend to have. The colors are nice and they wash up well. Not a heavy so comfortable for everyday use whether relaxing, doing yard work etc

Great t shirts
Number of Items: 5, Color: Navy/Heather Navy/Indigo Blue, Size: Large
Great t shirts. They fit great, and are very comfy as an under shirt or just a solid color shirt. Have washed them multiple times and they still hold up good, don’t wrinkle easy, and colors have stayed nice. The fit is great, can definitely be used for work, gym, whatever, just good comfy shirts
