A Short Bio of a NASCAR Favorite

Mark Martin is probably my favorite driver of all time, since I've been a fan of his for about 20 years and my NASCAR experience goes back more than 35 years. He's honest, loyal, hard-working, tenacious, respectful and very respected around the tracks, and author Kathy Persinger captures these and other traits of Mark in her book. It follows his life from birth to the last few years, and does a fair job of that. This book, part of a driver series, does not shed a lot of new light on Mark, is a rather short biography, and is probably better meant for someone just beginning to explore NASCAR or a younger fan. In this context, it is a fine book, one that they would enjoy.
