The world's number one, flat-out, all-time great, stock car racing book

Rate this book
On Labor Day weekend of 1972, journalist Jerry Bledsoe hooked up with the stock car racing circuit to begin research for his first book. The result of his efforts, first published by Doubleday in February, 1975, has been called the classic work on stock car racing. More, though, than a book about racing, it is a close-up look at a cultural phenomenon.
