Title: If you're planning to spend time in Amsterdam, this book is for you
Date: Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on October 29, 2022
Review: This book is well-written and witty. It shows Amsterdam through the eyes of a recently arrived expat, who has a knack for seeing amusing details of everyday life and making the reader laugh. Easy reading; thoroughly enjoyable.

Title: A well written and interesting history of bicycling in Amsterdam
Date: Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on July 30, 2015
Review: After my recent trip to Amsterdam I became interested in the city and its massive (by American standards) number of bicycle riders, so when I saw that the Kindle version of this book was on sale I bought it immediately and started reading it shortly afterward.

Pete Jordan, a self described "bike nut", was born in San Francisco and spent a decade there and in Portland, Pittsburgh and other American cities before he decided to move to Amsterdam with his new wife to pursue a graduate degree in urban planning at the University of Amsterdam. The focus of his studies was an examination of the history of bicycling in the city, the often lawless mind set of its bicyclists and bike thieves, and how they impacted the development and culture of the Dutch capital.

This book starts at the end of the 19th century, when bicycles first became available and affordable to ordinary citizens, and continues through the present. Amsterdam's compact size and consequent lack of space for parking cars, its narrow streets, the high cost of automobiles and gasoline, and the more relaxed pace of life in the tiny country of the Netherlands compared to the massive and spread out United States were all factors that led to the proliferation of bicycles in and outside of the city. Amsterdammers then and now embrace their bicycles as extensions of their own bodies, and any laws or pleas to restrict their usage or their right of way on the roads were met with indifference and were often ignored, most notably during the Nazi occupation in World War II when German officials attempted repeatedly to impose order on the cyclists but failed miserably.

In relating the story of Amsterdam's cyclists Jordan provides an interesting history of the city itself, which, like its cyclists, cannot be separated from its bicycles. He intersperses his and his family's experiences as bicyclists, beginning with his first collision with a bicyclist upon his arrival to the city, and including his son's initiation as a stunt cyclist, his wife's training as a bicycle mechanic, and his own development as a bicycle historian.

In the City of Bikes is a well written and very interesting book, which gave me greater insight into and appreciation of the bicycling culture of my newest favorite city, and enhanced my knowledge of the history of the Dutch capital.

Title: Good Information and Cause

Review: The author provides much interesting material and promotes the biking mindset effectively. At times his research reports seemed overly detailed and repetitive.

Title: Bikes verses Cars
Date: Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on October 31, 2021
Review: While this book was researched beyond what I had expected in anticipation of reading this book, I was not prepared for the tone of the story. It surprised me that there had always been conflicts between bicyclists and car drivers. Having toured Amsterdam five years ago, I was well aware of the narrow streets and numbers of bicycles on the streets.

Title: Most enjoyable read.
Date: Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on October 12, 2021
Review: This narrative provides a lot of humor and insight into the bicycling culture of Amsterdam and the Dutch
attitude that brought it about.

I haven't been to Amsterdam in decades and this book brought back so many memories, like time-traveling back to the mindset of a young person on his own in Amsterdam, hearing all the sounds of a two-wheeled metropolis whizzing by, in front, and at times directly at one.

Also included is a very informative history of the German occupation and what the Netherlands went through at the hands of its "big Aryan brothers."

If you've got any interest at all in things Nederlandsen, this book is a must.

Title: Overdone
Date: Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on January 1, 2022
Review: If you love Amsterdam like me you'll be tempted to read this book. Although there are many interesting historical anecdotes, the entire work would benefit from better editing. There are too many parenthetical quotations that offer little insight to the point at hand, and the overall storytelling is too repetitive. Negotiating through this book to get to its heart must be like cycling through Amsterdam at rush hour.

Review: Living in Texas in a city that is has stated to embrace Bicycling, it is my constant frustration to realize how far behind we are from a City like Amsterdam. Every trip that I’ve made to Europe, I always come back dreaming about our city transforming into the Copenhagen or Amsterdam or Berlin of America... This book opened my eyes about the most difficult situations that we are yet to encounter if Fort Worth Texas, the city of speedy HUGE pick up trucks (driven by careless youngsters who can’t take away their eyes from their phones while driving) is to become one day a city like Amsterdam.

Review: We love this book. My wife is Dutch and we met in her home city of Amsterdam. During her life in Amsterdam she used her bike as her sole method of transportation -- she did not learn how to drive an car until she moved to America. Of course I purchaed a real Dutch bike as a gift and she proudly uses it. A black Dutch working bike along with a skirt protector which she uses it to retrieve mail at the post office -- she gets many great comments on her bike. This book brings back so many great memories for her, and she gives the book high praise for its history on biking in Amsterdam, mutch of which she was unaware of. Well written and very enteraining for anyone who has a knowledge of Dutch culture, we highly recommend the book for anyone who is a cycling enthusiast.
