I am a huge Jeff Gordon fan and I have read and enjoyed almost anything written about him, but I have nothing good to say about this book. It is poorly written and reads very slowly. The facts in it are already well known and are repeated over and over again. I have gotten more info about Gordon in a two paragraph newspaper artical then this contains. After reading it, I felt like I wasted time and money. In general, I would say, don't waste anything on this book, it's not worth it. I also feel George Mair needs to go back to school or get a new editor. A bad book for many reasons.

I read this book hoping to get insight into Gordon's past, which I did get, somewhat. I've read articles that were more informative, but I did enjoy reading the book, mostly because I am a fan, so anything is something. This would have been a great book, had there been more substance and less repeated information. After reading it, I was glad I did because of the few things I did learn, but I probably won't read it again. From an editor's point of view, the mistakes in this book were constant and annoying. I'm a senior in high school, and the editor of our school newspaper, and I would be ashamed if these kind and quantity of mistakes were present in our paper.

This book was badly written for a couple of reasons. First of all, there are a lot of grammar mistakes, making it seem like it was just thrown together. Secondly, most of the information it contained is already very well known and some of it false. It contadicts itself in several places. There are quite a few good books out there about Gordon, but this is definatly not one of them.

This was one of the best books I've read!! I loved learning more about Jeff Gordon and his life. I recomend it to every NASCAR fan!!!!!!

I really enjoy this but I already knew alot about Gordon. I'm a huge fan and already knew alot bout him . It could have been written better but it was a good book.

I am a young Jeff Gordon fan and i didn't know to much about him. But after this book i new so much more

I Think it is the first book i read cover to cover, Good info------BUY IT--READ IT!!!!!

If you want to learn about the hottest young stock car driver read on......

If you are a Gordon and always looking for more information about him you have to read this book! From his childhood to now you get it all. I recomend this book to all read it NOW!!!!!!!

As a Jeff Gordon fan, I already was aware of much of the information contained in the book. Nonetheless, for the price it's well worth buying for the fun bits of information that I hadn't heard elsewhere. However, I do have to say that the book is poorly written. George Mair obviously fails to comprehend the notion of chronological order, jumping back and forth in a manner that is truly distracting to the reader.

Personally I think that this book was very good. I really liked it. It was very easy to follow. It was for all ages. Everyone who likes Nascar Winston Cup racing and especially Jeff Gordon will like this book.
