Inter-continental car race This book would be great for a lesson on what life was like in the early 1900's and how far cars have come along. It could also be used for talking about the black and white pictures in the book. It could also be used for talking about comparing and contrasting the people who went around the world or talking about their viewpoints. Chronicles a real car race around the world in 1908 when most places along the route had never even seen an automobile, nevermind had gas or spare parts available or even roads. So was the situation for entrants in the Greatest Auto Race where cars from Germany , France, Italy and the US set out to prove that cars COULD be a reliable form of transport. The race was filled with danger, misery, miscalculation, penalties and over-confidence but when it finished a route that covered 3 continents and over 22,000 miles in 169 days, the automobile was the real winner. Uses first-hand reports from team members, photographs and newspaper accounts and is a great example of how non-fiction can actually appeal to children. Who doesn't love a good car chase?
