One does not have to be a lover of horses to respond to the story of Seabiscuit and the unique personalities of the men who scripted the Cinderella story of an ungainly, unwanted, unbeautiful animal that became a racehorse legend. The narrative vividly describes the Depression years, life at the race track, and the thrilling events that captured the imagination of the American public and thrust Seabiscuit into the status of legend and “one of a kind” sports history. In the year 1938, more newspaper space was given to Seabiscuit than to FDR or Hitler! He was a symbol of hope for all those who felt they were losing the race for success.
