| This is the hilarious story of the first transcontinental automobile trip, an adventure undertaken in 1903 by Dr. Horatio Nelson Jackson. Traveling in a 20-horsepower 1903 Winton touring car, Jackson set off from San Francisco to win a $50 bet and prove that the "horseless carriage" really had a future. 63 days later, he arrived in New York to great national applause. directed by Ken Burns | |||
