My book is finally here! Come join me on tour! While I won’t be retracing all 4,106 miles of the 1909 Ocean-to-Ocean Race, I have several events lined up, with more to come. If you can't make it, visit https://t.co/CM2gyAvP37 & I'll mail you a signed custom bookplate! Thanks!

When I worked for @BostonGlobe, I always loved to buy it at the newsstand on my way to the gate, especially if it had my byline. What a thrill now to come back home from a few tour stops and see my name in the Globe again for the first time in years!

Philly friends! Come out to Head House Books tonight to hear about my new book The Hardest, Longest Race, in conversation with Paul Hendrickson! Should be a great time! (And don’t just take my word for it; look at these happy people at my NYC reading 😊)

While “the competition would strike the public as a test of the merits of each type of automobile—and the limits of human endurance—one thing would matter most of all: which competitor was willing to do whatever it would take to win,” @ELMoskowitz writes: https://t.co/xGOROxwHIj

So excited to be able to share an excerpt of my book in @TheAtlantic today, ahead of my first reading this afternoon and the official launch Tuesday! https://t.co/5PqLVPJL07

[Eric Moskowitz @ELMoskowitz]

If you're in the NYC area, come see me this Sunday (5/31) at 2:30 pm at the Katonah Reading Room (with John Swansburg) or this Monday evening (6/1) at 7 pm at the Barnes & Noble on the UWS (with @KhouryPeter). Free bookmarks in person, too! :)

So excited to have made this @HewittSTrib list of "Five books we can't wait to read in June" — alongside the novelist behind "Hamnet" and the Kelce brother's literary debut! https://t.co/c1AxHPQsvb

6yo: “Ref says redo!”
Me: “Remember, in baseball it’s not called a ref; it’s an umpire.”
6yo: “What’s an empire?”

@BookAnonJeff @StMartinsPress What a generous review — thank you for taking the time to read and post, Jeff!

[Eric Moskowitz @ELMoskowitz]

"... brisk prose that keeps our interest for the 4,106 miles to Seattle ... a vivid picture of America at the dawn of the automobile age ... Mr. Moskowitz’s rendering has the feel of a travelogue tracking Lewis and Clark, updated for the machine age."

[Eric Moskowitz @ELMoskowitz]

Wow! Up until now I've mainly been "Mr. Moskowitz" if I wasn't paying enough attention. But my book just got a generous review in @WSJBooks — thank you, @RogerLowenstein! https://t.co/HmungMxe8r

[Eric Moskowitz @ELMoskowitz]

Sad to hear about the death of Barney Frank, the most lightning-quick person I ever interviewed at the Globe, in or out of politics, and one of the most interesting, too. Great, sweeping obituary here from David Shribman https://t.co/jQ8ssC7YUS

[Eric Moskowitz @ELMoskowitz]

@Blaine_DeSantis Thank you, Blaine! That really means a lot!

[Eric Moskowitz @ELMoskowitz]

Just did my first podcast, two weeks before my book comes out. What a pleasure to join @Blaine_DeSantis for Books & Looks! https://t.co/K5PRtrkXWm
