Come on Seabiscuit!
Come on Seabiscuit! | Ralph Moody
1 post | 3 read
During the Great Depression, Seabiscuit captured the hearts of Americans from the streets to the White House, winning more money than any horse at that time and shattering speed records across the country. Moving and inspirational, "Come on Seabiscuit!" is a reminder of the qualities that make a real American champion.

Mehso-so

Nov - Dec 2020 (audiobook)
I felt this was a bit clunky. The story of the ugly, underdog racehorse that becomes the best is very familiar - well, to our family who regularly visit Phar Lap at the Melbourne Museum. The narrator‘s accent was grating. And whilst we were all cheering for Sea Biscuit, the ending was predictable - if he hadn‘t won, there would not have been a story to tell.
Finishing does mean we can now watch the movie though!
