Don Prudhomme

The Snake rules, awesome book about an awesome man!

I only have a casual interest in drag racing today but remember well "The Snake" during his heyday. Good read about early drag racing and its many characters. I would have liked reading more about the cars, engines and set-ups but this a biography. Not much is covered about personal and family issues since it's really a recap of his successful dominance of the sport. I was fortunate enough to receive a printed copy and could enjoy a number of photos of a past time.

Very informative!

This book was a delight to read and was insightful about his life. While not a book full stats and other information this is his story on his terms. There are plenty of pictures of Prudhomme's career through the years and the many cars he drove. Not my kind of racing but a good book.
