Linda Vaughn: The First Lady of Motorsports av Rob Kinnan
Det här är en av LibraryThings förhandsrecensioner.
My maiden name was Linda Vaughn, so is was curious to read. She had Avery exciting life and I enjoyed reading the book. My friend who is a car enthusiast read it after me and also enjoyed it. I then donated it to our local library.
Thanks

This is a fantastic comprehensive autobiography by the First Lady of Motorsports herself, Linda Vaughn (with Rob Kinnan). This book has everything - great vintage photography, insights in her career, materials from her own perspective and memories and a foreword by Don Garlits. I remember first seeing photos of her at the races and thinking how beautiful she is, we'll here's your chance to lust over her yourself. There's much here about which I wasn't aware - how many good biographies have you read lately?
This book is chock-full of anecdotes regarding what Linda was doing during the height of auto-racing - who she met, where she went and what was happening at the latest racing scene. I liked seeing her perspective on the men and events - great insight. If you're a race fan you will want to find a copy of this book.
The book itself has a sewn binding and dust jacket that matches the pictorial cover. The photography is fairly clear but still shows some of the degradation of computer-to-printer publishing.
Full disclosure, I received this book as part of the LibraryThing Early Reviewer's group.… (mer)

'Linda Vaughn: The First Lady of Motorsports' is a colorful book and a fitting auto-biography for a person so iconic to the auto-racing world. The plethora of photographs make Linda's comments, stories, and descriptions come alive and allow the reader to follow the development of racing as well as its place in the American consciousness. Linda went far beyond a simple spoke model as her stories about luminaries from the racing world can attest. She spins a down-home version of the growth of this unique world and gives very human looks at the lives involved in the sport. Fans of racing will love and benefit from the honest, inside look. Casual to non-fans can't help but be impressed by the scope of the work and Linda's life.… (mer)
