Round Lake Ontario: A Bicyclist's Tour Guide, 2nd Ed.! Below is a sample map from the 1st Edition of this wonderful Tour Guide. Lake Ontario has great historical significance for all Americans (citizens of Canada and the United States). Major naval battles of the War of 1812 were fought on the Lake.
