by Laura Hilenbrand. This is the story of an unlikely champion, a happy little Thoroughbred named Seabiscuit, who won the hearts and soul of Depression-era Americans. His jockey, his trainer, and his owner had nothing whatever in common except for the common denominator of Seabiscuit.

This is a REAL American success story, a saga likely to bring tears to your eyes because it demonstrates that there is nothing more important to success than determination and an undying will.
