I found the following book in the bibliography of Jerry Kaplan's Master's Thesis. I can find copies in libraries many miles from me. Does anyone have a copy I...
You could use something called the "inter-library loan." That's what I use. You go to your local library and give them as much info as possible (ISBN is best)...
Three days in, and I now have four expressions of interest, and one of these people submitted three name suggestions. I'm going ahead with this. Here's how...
Now we have the whole story of how the UVC treated bicyclists over the years. The original 1926 UVC defined bicycles as vehicles for the purposes of the rules...
