RAGBRAI: Everyone Pronounces It Wrong is a celebration, a memoir, an entertainment. The book deals with the first 25 years of the famous bike ride. It describes the genesis of an event that has drawn hundreds of thousands of people to Iowa from all over the world and attempts to explain the ride's continued charm and appeal.

John Karras worked in newspapers from 1952 to 1984. In 1967 the bike bug bit leading him into co-founding RAGBRAI. Ann Karras is a photographer who has documented many RAGBRAI's.
