About the Book

Major Taylor was an African-American cyclist who broke racial barriers and became a world champion. This book tells his story, from his humble beginnings in Indianapolis to his triumphs on the track.

Taylor's story is one of courage, determination, and triumph. He faced discrimination and prejudice throughout his career, but he never gave up on his dreams. He became a world champion in 1899, and his victory helped to break down racial barriers in cycling.

Taylor's story is an inspiration to us all. It shows us that anything is possible if we set our minds to it. It also reminds us of the importance of fighting for what we believe in, even when it's difficult.
