Marlin book fairly comprehensive, very informative

As a biography, this is a well-written piece that covers Sterling's life and career from a pro-Sterling perspective. Larry Woody obviously has an affinity for Sterling and his family, which shines through. Providing a bold overview of his career, Woody shows Marlin as the tough, dedicated racer he is and the strong family man that he is, too! I'd have liked to have read a bit more detail on Sterling's early career...Woody seems to sweep over the late 70's and early 80's in just a few short pages. Sterling's years at Morgan-McClure and Ganassi are given the most prominence. On the positive note, the book covers all the way through Sterling's injury at Kansas...you can't get much more up-to-date. From a design/image perspective, the book is hit-and-miss. It features some awesome early photos of Sterling, both on and away from the track. Plenty of pics of him with the family and from his teen years, which are stellar. The on-track shots leave a lot to be desired. Whoever designed the book did not get very high-res photos from the races, so many images of Sterling's rides are blurry, out-of-focus, or just plain awful. Plus, the book doesn't show images of his Sadler Racing or Stavola Bros. cars and barely any of the Sabco years images. The cover design could've been a bit more dynamic, too.I haven't checked out the CD-ROM that's included yet. It's supposed to contain original music, screensavers, images, and stats.This book is pretty essential for Sterling fans. We're not likely to get a tell-all like Junior's "Driver 8" or Tony Stewart's "True Speed" any time soon, so this is as comprehensive a book about Sterling Marlin as you could ask for.
