Only slight wear; A bright, solid book, dustjacket is crisp and bright, in Mylar, unclipped. ; B&W and Colour Photographs; 9.30 X 7.60 X 1.40 inches; 358 pages; From the front DJ flap:"In 1912, Jack Haney, a 23-year-old mechanic with the Reo Motor Car Company of St. Catherines, Ontario, set out in a 1912 Reo Special touring car with the English writer Thomas Wilby. Their aim was to be the first to drive a car from the Atlantic to the Pacific entirely within Canada. Lorne Findlay, a retired mechanic from Vancouver, and John Nicol, a writer from Niagara-on-the-Lake, Ontario, recreated that historic trip 85 years later, from August 27 until October 18, 1997. THE ALL-RED ROUTE is an account of both trips: the untold story of the first attempt to find a motor route across a barely tamed and largely uninhabited country, and the recreation of that historic adventure, in the Reo, staying in the same towns on the same nights, even in some of the same hotels.".
