Finish

The Big Race

Light-footed like Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, Billy Joe Speed and Buck Miller leave every opponent in the dust. They thrive on their speed—not so much that of their guns, but that of their feet. At the finish line, the fast men are met not only with prize money and beautiful women but also with people who are out to get them. Spurred on and protected by their coach, mentor, and manager, the legendary Moriarty, owner of the "Theater of the West," they are driven by his dream of an extraordinary show—a race where everything is at stake.

Tom McNab takes his readers into a world full of deprivation and hope, defeats and triumphs. He depicts the fascination of the American West and running in all its facets.
