Are We There Yet?: The First Road Trip Across the USA
Stacy McAnulty, illustrated by Elizabeth Baddeley
In 1903, Dr. Horatio Nelson Jackson wagers that he can drive a horseless carriage from California to New York in under three months. He cannot drive, highways do not yet exist, and previous attempts have failed. Jackson hires bicycle racer Sewall Crocker as a mechanic, and they leave in the Vermont with Bud the bulldog. Their cross-country trip requires getting through streams, mud, rocky ground, and delays for replacement parts.
