Genevieve Obert: Prince Borghese's Trail
-
Stacey's Bookstore, 581 Market St.
In 1907 a handful of European aristocrats, led by Italian prince
Scipione Borghese, drove the longest, toughest, automobile race to
date. In 1997, Genevieve Obert with co-driver Linda Dodwell and
ninety-six other driving teams, reenacted this great adventure in
the arduous Peking to Paris Motor Challenge. Rallying vintage
automobiles through exotic locales is typically a rich man's sport,
but automotive journalist Genny Obert was determined to enter the
race from the moment she heard about it. Her book is an inspiring
portrayal of two daring women, interwoven with the fascinating
story of Prince Borghese's original journey.
