The
Freewheelin' Thomas Hardy is a book of bicycle tours around the town of Dorchester in Dorset, England. If you are a Thomas Hardy fan, you will already know that many of the scenes in his novels take place in real locations. What you may not know is that both he and his wife zipped around Dorset on bicyles, in Thomas' case, a Rover Cobb bicycle that he purchased in Weymouth. Freewheelin' guides you to some of the real locations in Far From the Madding Crowd, The Mayor of Casterbridge, Tess of the D'ubervilles and other Hardy novels. These tours are designed to take you to Hardy's favourite haunts by bicylce, the same mode of transportation the great man used himself. Comments: I think you've done an excellent job in your description of the places . . . I shall be off on holiday to Dorset in the autumn and the book will certainly be coming with me -- Patricia Mann, author of Weatherbury Farm and The d'Uberville Inheritance.
