Synopsis
Long before 'The Amazing Race' there was 'The Great Race', an around-the-world auto race that took place in 1908 and made headlines throughout that year. It featured an international field of vehicles that showcased the incredibly innovative car-making of the time. Encounters with wolves, Cossacks, terrible roads, thieves and more made this proto-typical global competition as exciting as our favourite survival shows. It featured an equally appealing cast of characters - the preening Italian adventurer, the proud German soldier, the scrappy Americans whom no one believed could win. All are captured in this thrilling illustrated non-fiction narrative by acclaimed novelist Gary Blackwood.
