Product Description

This chronicle of Tony Stewart´s quest for the 2005 Nextel Cup championship offers many positive and inspirational stories about the NASCAR superstar´s admitted transformation that seemingly coincided with his move back to Columbus, Indiana. The photo-filled book also explores the differences between Stewart´s quest for the 2005 Cup title and his 2002 Cup title; while a large portion is dedicated to his brilliant win at the 2005 Brickyard 400 in Indianapolis and his incredible stretch of five wins in seven races between late June and mid-August. Tony Stewart: 2005 Nextel Cup Champion is published in the tradition of similar "instant" books celebrating the achievements of championship teams and individuals. Other recent instant books from Sports Publishing include White Sox: 2005 World Series Champions with the Chicago Sun-Times, North Carolina: 2005 NCAA Champions with The Raleigh News & Observer, and Patriots: 2005 Super Bowl Champions, This One is For History with the Boston Herald.
