Description
"It's a grand, spectacular "horseless carriage", a shiny, yellow, 1905 Winton Flyer automobille. It's owner is Mississippi plantation owner "Boss" who has left it sitting unattended. But hired hand Boon Hogganbeck decides it would be the ideal vehicle to take him and his buddy, stable hand Ned McCaslin, on a glorious, whirlwind jaunt to distant Memphis. And along for the ride is Boss's earnest 12-year-old grandson, Lucius, who finds himself reluctantly drafted to be the third "reiver" (an old Scottish word for thief) aboard his grandfather's car. So starts a bumpy journey that sweeps the trio into encounters with both Boon's raucous gal pal at a brothel and a corrupt racist sheriff, as well as a spellbinding, winner-takes-all horse race, with ownership of the Winton Flyer at stake"--Container.
