If you can’t bring the man to the books, bring the books to the man. Mary Lemist Titcomb (1852–1932) was always looking for ways to improve her library. As librarian at the Washington County Free Library in Maryland, Titcomb was concerned that the library was not reaching all the people it could. She was determined that everyone should have access to the library—not just adults and those who lived in town. Realizing its limitations and inability to reach the county’s 25,000 rural residents, including farmers and their families, Titcomb set about to change the library system forever with the introduction of book-deposit stations throughout the country, a children’s room in the library, and her most revolutionary idea of all—a horse-drawn Book Wagon. Soon book wagons were appearing in other parts of the country, and by 1922, the book wagon idea had received widespread support. The bookmobile was born!

SHORTLISTED FOR THE SPORTS BOOK AWARDS 'Cycling Book of the Year' 2022 The strange and thrilling world of Japanese track racing - a cycling and betting culture unlike anything else on earth The Olympic cycling sport of keirin was invented in Japan more than 70 years ago to raise money to rebuild the country after World War II. Now, fans bet billions of dollars a year on races, with the top riders earning huge sums. In each race, a pacemaker leads nine riders around huge concrete velodromes, then leaves the track with around a lap and a half to go - the cue for a frantic finish as the competitors reach speeds of up to 70 kph. Along the way they block and shove each other, clash heads and occasionally crash (the two Japanese characters used to write keirin mean 'battle' and 'wheel'). To prevent race fixing, the cyclists spend meets living in dorms, with no access to online technology. Their lives are ruled by ritual and fierce competition, from their rookie days at the Japan Keirin School near Mount Fuji to the annual Grand Prix final, whose winner takes home prize money of almost one million dollars. A small number of foreign riders are invited to compete in Japan every year and some, like Shane Perkins, have overcome culture shock to prosper in the home of keirin. Justin McCurry, the Guardian's Japan and Korea correspondent, explores a blue-collar Japan we rarely see and a uniquely fascinating sporting culture.

First published in 1892, On Wheels: And How I Came There is Private William B. Smith's firsthand account of his enlistment in the 14th Illinois Volunteer Infantry at age 15, and his adventures-- first as a wide-eyed boy soldier and later, as a wizened veteran and prisoner in Andersonville and other notorious Southern prisons. The stories he tells of his life, friends, and adventures along the way give a revealing peek into that long-ago war. His writing is always upbeat, despite the terrible hardships and physical trauma he suffered, and his dry wit, humor, and unique perspective make this a story you won't want to put down. This isn't a scholarly writing, it is a heartfelt, human story told by someone who experienced one of the most exciting and horrific times in US history and lived to tell the tale.One hundred and ten years after the original publication, and up till now available only as a rare, antiquarian book, On Wheels can once again be read by Civil War enthusiasts and others wanting to expand their knowlege while also reading a fascinating story.Updated and indexed, with added pension records, maps, a timeline, and a glossary, this new printing goes a step further in satisfying the reader as to what became of the boy soldier from that long ago time.
