Review

Kassia St Clair has clearly done her research . . . she tells a thrilling tale . . . Torrential rain and choking dust, narrow mountain passes that required literally hewing a passage . . . It's an incredible story - Country Life

An incredible and stirring story . . . a mix of competition, camaraderie as well as a larky sense of adventure . . . Down goes the flag. Smash goes the bottle. Shards of emerald glass and champagne spume catch the light. The race from Peking to Paris has begun - The Spectator

And it's Go, Go, Go . . . A captivating history of a seemingly impossible journey and one of the most challenging endurance trials in the history of motoring . . . Skillful researcher and fine storyteller, St Clair's narrative is full of surprises . . . Fabulous . . . she hopes to follow Prince Borghese on his heroic journey and - if you share my absorbed interest in her adventurous narrative you may want to emulate her. See you there? -- Miranda Seymour - Literary Review
