Once Upon a Chariot Bicycling with Spirit across the USA by Iris Paris "'My mind races as my legs pump and the ground flies beneath me. The scenery moves by like so many feet of paper on my mother's player piano, rolling, playing, and measuring my progress.' With that, author Iris Paris begins an intriguing journal of her mother, Norma Jean Belloff, who raced across the United States on bicycle in 1948. Told with charm and wit, this representation of the personal journal of the woman who established the USA record for Women's Cross-Country Cycling will grab your attention and your heart. Portrayals of the people she met and the experiences she encountered, told firsthand, enlighten us to a simpler time that was still wrought with the social difficulties we find today. Looking for a new way of escape? Find yours in Once Upon a Chariot—who knows, you might be inspired to take you your own chariot and feel the wind in your face." 212 pages - $13.99 (paperback)
