The editors of The Charlotte Observer have selected the most exciting moments from the career of NASCAR legend and seven-time Winston Cup champion Dale Earnhardt.

The new epilogue covers Earnhardt's career since 1998 through his tragic death in 2001.

Great Book - I highly recommend it!,
By Angela (Illinois) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Dale Earnhardt:Rear View Mirror (Hardcover)
I just finished my copy of this book and wanted all Dale Earnhardt fans to know how terrific it is. This is a collection of articles from the Charlotte Observer that covers the span of his career. It is a really neat way to remember all he has done.

Exactly as advertised.,
By franna@gateway.net (Texas) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Dale Earnhardt:Rear View Mirror (Hardcover)
I found the book to be exactly as advertised. It is a compendium of newspaper articles from The Charlotte Observer following the career of Dale Earnhardt. The book was not meant to be a history of Dale's career. I was somewhat disappointed in the photographs and the physical layout--the colors on some of the pages made it difficult to read-- but overall got exactly what I paid for.
