From Moonshine to Madison Ave,
By susan tuck (North Carolina, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: From Moonshine to Madison Avenue : A Cultural History of the NASCAR Winston Cup Series (Paperback)
This is an excellent book. I needed a book that looked at NASCAR in a sociological point of view and this was the answer to my prayer. It gives a very good description of the history of NASCAR Winston Cup. If you are looking for a book about NASCAR Winston Cup Series and its history, then I strongly recommend this one. Enjoy reading.
