Nascar Chronicle

Rating:
Summary: NASCAR Chronicle
Review: A complete history of NASCAR from the beach to the bigtime, NASCAR Chronicle is the best single source for NASCAR information you can find. As much space is devoted to the daring drivers of NASCAR's early days as today's biggest stars. The black and white photos from the 1940s and 50s are invaluable and fascinating. And the anecdotes and stories of NASCAR's early days provide color and grit for a sport that has become overly polished. The story of each season's points race and important events is recounted, and the appendix includes a list of the winner of every race in NASCAR history. This is no glitzy personality-driven book full of headshots and drivers' favorite foods. It's a gritty, factual, behind-the-scenes look at what made NASCAR great.

Summary: Gotcha Good!
Review: I like a little substance with my puffery, and this is it. Easy to flip through, deep if you've got the time. Among the best year-by-year Nascar-in-a-nutshell books out there.

Summary: Everything I Wanted to Know About NASCAR.
Review: More than a collection of frilly pictures and personality profiles, NASCAR Chronicle tells the stories behind the men and the machines. An easy read, and lots of fun.
