Handpicked Links We Love: August 27, 2016 Edition

What we're clicking on this week at Fathom HQ.

A case for bicycles! Cruising two wheels is a cure for writer's block, a vehicle for women's lib, and a "creaturely joy," according to this 1926 ode. – Jeralyn, editorial director

I loved this nine-minute animated short film on Paris from 1958. And I didn't understand a word of it. – Daniel, editorial assistant

Would you take a family honeymoon? Fathom contributor Lucy Laucht makes a case for updating the traditional post-wedding vacation. – Berit, editor

I just got back from a hiking trip in upstate New York (which coincided nicely with National Parks' 100th birthday!), and I'm already dream-planning my next escape thanks to the fantastic National Parks Adventure showing at NYC's Museum of Natural History. Here's a trailer. – Becky, assistant editor

Skim through these vintage pocket travel guides made for WWII American soliders by the U.S. Army's Morale Services station. It's worth it for the tables of contents alone. – Daniel

Michael Heizer, a pioneer of the earthworks movement, began his mile-long City sculptural installation in the '70s in the Nevada desert. It's a monument to outlast humanity. – Jeralyn

I adore Japanese architecture, so I'm thrilled about Tokyo's newest museum dedicted to mini architecture models. – Becky
