Hardcover. Condition: Like New. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. First Edition. Uncommon in this condition, with dustjacket. The book chronicles the century-long journey of the Schwinn family business from its 1895 founding in Chicago to its 1992 bankruptcy. It is highly sought after primarily due to its status as the definitive, unauthorized corporate history of a beloved American icon. Beyond cycling, the book is highly valued in academic and business circles as a cautionary tale of a family business failing to adapt to global manufacturing shifts and new trends like BMX and mountain biking.
