520    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 Kopchovsky changed
       all of that.Annie was a Jewish immigrant and working 
       mother of three living in a Boston tenement with her 
       husband, a peddler. This was as close to the American 
       dream as she was likely to get-until she became part 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, as Thomas Stevens had a few years before. Annie
       rose to the challenge, pledging to finish her fifteen-
       month trip with a staggering $5,000 earned by selling 
       advertising space on her bike and her clothing, making 
       personal appearances in stores and at bicycle races, and 
       lecturing about her adventures along the way. When the 
       Londonderry Lithia Springs Water Company of New Hampshire 
       offered to become the first of her many sponsors, Annie 
       Kopchovsky became Annie Londonderry, and a legend was 
       born. So began one of the greatest escapades-and publicity
       stunts-of the Victorian Age.In this marvelously written 
       book, author Peter Zheutlin vividly recounts the story of 
       the audacious woman who turned every Victorian notion of 
       female propriety on its ear. When Annie left Boston in 
       June 1894, she was a brash young lady with a 42-pound 
       bicycle, a revolver, a change of underwear, and a dream of
       freedom. The epic journey that followed-from a frigid ride
       through France to an encounter with outlaw John Wesley 
       Hardin in El Paso-took the connection between athletics 
       and commercialism to dizzying new heights and turned Annie
       into a symbol of sexual equality.A beguiling true story of
       a bold spirit who reinvented herself against all odds, 
       Around the World on Two Wheels blends social history and 
       high adventure into an unforgettable portrait of courage, 
       imagination, and tenacity.
