DALE EARNHARDT JR.
Inside the Rise of a NASCAR Superstar
by Ron LeMasters Jr. and Al Pearce, with
Photography by Nigel Kinrade and Harold Hinson
His dad's death five years ago had a
sobering effect on Dale Earnhardt Jr. He didn't leave all the fun
behind, but he did decide to focus more intensely on his career –
and his perseverance paid off in 2004 with his most impressive
victory to date: a Daytona 500 win.
Now only one thing is left on his agenda: capturing a national
championship. That road will be tougher than it was for the
legendary Dale Earnhardt Sr. The competition is tougher and the
points race now concludes in a ten-race shootout, but Little E. will
eventually find his way there.
This book offers a look at the life of the man who has become the
face of NASCAR. Filled with outstanding photographs of Dale Jr.,
ranging from his early career to his most recent triumphs, and
featuring interviews with those who have been there through it all,
the book chronicles Dale Jr.'s ascent from the Andy Hillenburg
driving school to 15 career Cup victories – and fills in what few
know about this perennial favorite.
Hard cover, 192 pages.
