5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful pictures, informative and entertaining text., January 18, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Illustrated History of Stock Car Racing: From the Sands of Daytona to Madison Avenue (Hardcover)

Pictures and text bring to life the early years, growth and maturing of racing. Few books offer the quality mix of photos and words. Hunter and Pearce have done a great job. Entertaining and informative coffee table-sized book. I'm glad I bought it. Looking forward to more books along this line.
