Resumen del Editor

Who would have believed that a knobby-kneed little colt called Seabiscuit would become one of the most celebrated racehorses of all time? Although Seabiscuit was the grandson of the legendary Man O' War, he was neither handsome nor graceful. His head was too big, his legs were too short, and his gallop was awkward.

During the depths of the Great Depression, Seabiscuit won against incredible odds and uplifted the hearts of Americans from the streets to the White House. Ralph Moody recounts the thrilling tale of the plucky horse who refused to quit, the down-on-his-luck jockey who didn't let horrendous accidents keep him out of the saddle, and the taciturn trainer who brought out the best in both.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Moody is no stranger to a well-told horse tale, having penned Stagecoach West and the beloved Little Britches books. But it's this story of the knobby-kneed colt called Seabiscuit that has won the most hearts, and is here lovingly retold in audiobook form. Storyteller Jim Weiss narrates, using his very best talents to capture the drama and heart of clumsy Seabiscuit himself, the grandson of the legendary Man O'War." (The Midwest Book Review)

Great Story, Very Good Performance

I've loved this book for years, and Jim Weiss does it justice. I was a bit reluctant to listen, since I was afraid a lackluster would tick me off; but this reader was exciting to listen to. The only possible gripe I had was his pronunciation of one word, but then I'm very picky. Mr. Weiss, unlike most readers of horse stories, gives me the impression that he actually knows what he's reading about and finds it as thrilling as I do!

Delightful book

I knew nothing of horse racing. I learned so much and enjoyed every minute of the reading. I am also a particular fan of Ralph Moody.

Riveting: Better than the movie

The true to life details would have been hard to stomach in a movie, but the grit and determination of this wonderful horse and the people around him are so much more inspiring than the Hollywood version I have previously watched.

Seabiscuit! You are amazing!

Thoroughly enjoyed the reading of this book. The narrator neither overplayed or understated the many ups and downs of an amazing story. Thanks for the great entertaining story.

Wonderful piece of Americana!!

Seabiscuit is my favorite movie. I realized from Moody's narrative that the screenplay was adapted mostly from Ralph Moody's book. It was excellent that there were beautiful details contained in the book that are absent in the movie.
