Book review: "The 1928 Bunion Derby"

Before going in-depth with this review of James R. Powell's "The 1928 Bunion Derby," prospective customers should know right away it is not a turn-by-turn guidebook to the infamous 3,423-mile Trans-American Footrace from Los Angeles to New York City - much of it on Route 66. It's easy for longtime Route 66 enthusiasts to initially misconstrue the large, spiral-bound volume as being a sports-related version of another large, spiral-bound, turn-by-turn guidebook - mainly, Bob Moore's "Route 66: The Illustrated Guide to the Mother Road" from 1994. Also, Powell remains well-known as a diligent researcher of Route 66 alignments.
