"Published to commemorate the 15th anniversary of Earnhardt Sr.'s death, a profile of the influential NASCAR family is set against a backdrop of the history of the world's fastest stock-car-racing organization and traces the achievements of three generations of Earnhardt drivers"--
Ralph Earnhardt toiled in a cotton mill in his native North Carolina to support his growing family, but spent weekends going pedal to the metal at the dirt tracks. His son, Dale Earnhardt Sr., would become one of the greatest drivers of all time, and grandson Dale Jr, would become NASCAR's most popular driver of the 2000s. Busbee tells the story of this car racing dynasty and the business that would make them rich and famous-- and nearly tear them apart.
