Book Reviews of Dale Earnhardt Jr.: Making a Legend of His Own
Book Review: Nice Item for Fans
Summary: 4 Stars
The photographs were great and the history was wonderful to learn. The copyright is 2005, so it's for fans who want to know about the Bud #8 driver. The book has a few pages before racing and a section on his Busch (now Nationwide) Series. The book left out February 2001. It goes from January 2001 Chapter 6 to September 2001 Chapter 7, not giving a chapter to the horrible February 2001, which was fine by me. I don't mind Dale Jr. keeping it a private issue during 2005 when the book was published. The book ends with March 2005 Chapter 14 and has an Epilogue. It also has a list of Earnhardt's races in the back. The list has Year, Race No., Finish, Start, Car, Laps, Condition and Winnings (dollar amounts). Winston/Nextel 1999-2004 full seasons and 17 races in 2005. Busch 1997-2005 races. I enjoyed the book and am pleased to own it. The book was softcover, however still a wonderful item to showcase on coffee tables or other places.
Summary of Dale Earnhardt Jr.: Making a Legend of His Own
In the four years since his dad's untimely death, Dale Earnhardt Jr. has lived up to the legacy "The Intimidator" left behind. Keeping the diehard No. 8 fan up-to-date on the stellar career of one of NASCAR's current top stars, this second edition will contain all the original edition's Circle Track and Stock Car Racing magazine articles that followed Little E from Andy Hillenburg's driving school through the Busch Series to Cup racing, and adds pieces on Jr.'s successful 2003, 2004, and 2005 seasons.With 15 wins through 2005, he has been in the thick of the championship hunt the last two seasons while only continuing to heighten his profile as a spokesman for NASCAR racing. Many of his legions of fans were also fans of his dad, but Little E has earned their respect on his own merit, and with each passing year he moves further out of his father's shadow and into his own limelight.
