Thunder Road Book

If you love the classic movie then you will love this book. Gives amazing details of the time and era.

Return to Thunder Road

Alex Gabbard is a unique combination of wordsmith, historian and "Good 'Ol Boy" story teller. He preserves a part of our national heritage which has nearly been lost and greatly distorted. To his great credit he combines technical accuracy with moonshining lore and historical fact and still makes it a very entertaining read. I was fascinated to learn how unsophisticated "Hill Billies" cobbled up some awesome cars to run "Shine" and gave birth to stock car racing.It's a darn good book
