Summer Reading
I own a small piece of paradise in Hatteras, North Carolina, and my electricity is supplied through a cooperative. Monthly I receive its magazine, "Carolina Country," and the cover story this month is on “Silent Speedways of the Carolinas.”
“Silent Speedways” was written by Perry Allen Wood, a long-time fan of NASCAR and especially of the short tracks of SC and NC. His book not only describes these once lively tracks — all 29 of which held at least one Grand National event — but also recalls the races.
The excerpt from the book was fascinating and informative. It’ll make good reading while at the beach, at the lake or in the mountains this summer — or even during the lull while tailgating at a track.
The book (308 pages and 151 photos) is available at Amazon.com for $35 (paperback).

Gentlemen,
I am very honored to have you read my book excerpt and give it such a wonderful review. If anyone would care to buy one directly from me, I'd be pleased to personalize it. If not, thank you from the bottom of my heart for the kind words.
Sincerely,
Perry Allen Wood
