On March 31, 1929, seventy-seven men began an epic 3,554-mile footrace across America that pushed their bodies to the breaking point. Nicknamed the "Bunion Derby” by the press, this was the second and last of two trans-America footraces held in the late 1920s. Thiss engrossing account evokes the remarkable physical challenge the runners experienced and bolsters the argument that the last Bunion Derby was the greatest long-distance footrace of all time.
