Thanks Kirkus Reviews, which earlier this year gave “The Race Underground” a beautiful starred review, for now naming it a Best Non-Fiction Book of 2014. Some amazing company I’m in, so it’s really special. Some of the fellow authors in the category include Jill Lepore, Walter Isaacson, Hampton Sides for “The Kingdom of Ice” (my personal favorite), Scott Stossell, Matt Taibbi, and Lawrence Wright. Wow.
