| Publisher Description: At Speed is an irreverent but informed look at the colorful personalities, exciting places, and devoted fans of stock car racing. It is divided into six sections: "People" (the sport's key personalities), "Places" (its unique venues), "Fans" (its avid followers), "Opinions" (what is right and wrong about the NASCAR phenomenon), "Color" (a collection of humorous pieces), and "Scenes" (word pictures of the sport from different perspectives). "People" profiles Bobby Allison, Geoff Bodine, the Burton brothers, Ricky Craven, Dale Earnhardt, Bill Elliott, Jeff Gordon, Robby Gordon, Ernie Irvan, Kenny Irwin, Dale Jarrett, Junior Johnson, Richard Petty, Tony Stewart, Rusty Wallace, Darrell Waltrip, and many more NASCAR legends and legends-in-the-making. AT SPEED is this season's NASCAR book that will take the checkered flag. |
