Turn Left on Green: A Novel of Stock Car Racing

Rating:
Summary: At Last!!!
Review: Clyde Bolton has written a definitive novel about NASCAR, drivers and the lives of those on the periphery of the high-banked ovals. Best of all, he has written a book about racing. From the inside.

Seldom does a novel on any sport penetrate athlete's thoughts, feelings, highs and lows; Bolton has done that in TURN LEFT ON GREEN. He has managed to put aside the sportswriter's desk and bring out the novelist's table, a tricky feat, and create a well-written and informative story, which incorporates his knowledge of the sport without being intrusive.

TURN LEFT ON GREEN should be read not only by NASCAR enthusiasts, but also by anyone who enjoys the rhythm and passion of a good read.
