What We Are Reading Today: ‘The Hardest, Longest Race’ by Eric Moskowitz

Eric Moskowitz’s “The Hardest, Longest Race” tells the riveting story of the first true coast-to-coast automobile race in US history, a fast-paced tale of the gritty and determined drivers who braved hostile terrain, mechanical failure, and, shockingly, sabotage, to take home the gold.

As a seeming people’s champion — a car for the masses — traverses the vast nation, Moskowitz brings to vivid life the diverse populace and landscape that it would soon transform.
