Let 'Em All Go!
By
Chris Economaki
with Dave Argabright
Winner,
2006 AARWBA "Book of the Year" Award
Auto racing has fascinated Chris
Economaki since 1932, and he has devoted his entire life to the
sport. His 73-year involvement has led him to become the most
widely-read and recognized commentator in the sport’s history,
along the way gaining an unmatched perspective of auto racing.
Teaming with noted author Dave
Argabright, Chris has penned an instant classic. Covering nearly
every gamut of auto racing, with an emphasis on racing in the
United States, Chris tells of the events and characters that
shaped and influenced the sport through more than a century of
competition.
Let' Em All Go!
is a fast-paced narrative of one man’s journey across eight
incredible decades of motorsports, remembering the characters,
events, transitions, and evolutions that brought the sport to
worldwide prominence. It’s not a facts-and-figures history
book; far from it.
You’ll find every emotion on
these pages. Laughter at the many funny stories; sadness, as
Chris watched so many friends leave this world as they pursued
perfection; intrigue, as unlikely developments in the sport are
probed; fascination, as the sport’s evolution is explained and
dissected; and a mixture of concern and optimism as Chris talks
of the future of the sport.
Let' Em All Go!
doesn’t just tell you what happened; it delves into why it
happened, and what it all means.
Most of all, you’ll be given a
once-in-a-lifetime, behind-the-curtain tour across 74 years of
auto racing, from the man who has been called by noted publicist
and author Tom Cotter, “the single greatest resource of racing
knowledge in the history of the sport.” |
