Two college grads served in the military but missed active duty abroad pool their funds and head to Europe for a year touring the battlefields after the Armistice in 1919. Riding bicycles keeps them close to the people who lived through the battles as well as providing first-hand views of the devastation. They add the deserts of North Africa and the valleys of Switzerland to their examinations of France, Germany, Italy, Holland, and Belgium before concluding their stay in post-war Great Britain. Throughout their journey they retain their good humor and self-deprecating manner that provide good laughs amidst such despair.
