About this listen

"I purposely waited until I retired from driving so the book would encompass my entire career," says Jeff Gordon. "People are going to be able to read about me like they've never read about me before."

The first-ever authorized biography of Jeff Gordon, the four-time champion racing legend. For over a year, Garner interviewed and observed Gordon at races, at special events, and at home. The book is based on extensive interviews with Gordon as well as in-depth interviews with dozens of family members, friends, competitors, and colleagues, some of whom have never gone on the record before. Jeff speaks candidly, sometimes brutally so, about his childhood, his much publicized divorce, those he competed against, his family, and life after racing. Gordon's meteoric rise through racing's ranks is a classic American success story. Listeners will find inspiration in Gordon's candid take on his pivotal life episodes.

GOOD

Jeff had an amazing career and it’s well documented in this book. Only criticism I have is the narration would’ve been fine without voicing the different people. Works in fiction but not so much in bios.

Great Listen!

This is a good a book about Jeff Gordon’s career, but the narrator pronounces NASCAR as NAZCAR throughout the book, and it’s annoying.

There is no Z in NASCAR.

I have been a Jeff Gordon fan since the early 90’s but put off buying this book until now 2022. I thoroughly enjoyed the story of his childhood and his rise to the pinnacle of stock car racing. This book filled in many blanks that I had wondered about and I felt like I have a better idea of who Jeff Gordon the man is.

Great book written about a great man

The Narrator doesn’t know how to pronounce the name of the sport or other people’s names that are involved with the sport. Little frustrating.

A definite must listen for fans of Jeff Gordon and/or Nascar. I loved the stories and history of Jeff's career but really got tired of the bad attempts at impersonating people's voices by the reader.

Great book, terrible impersonations

Story teller changing his voice all the time was a little annoying. Could have done without that. But the book was awesome!

Fascinating

Loved the book. Couldn't stop listening. I am a huge Jeff Gordon fan and this was well written and performed. Brought back many great memories of his career. Highly recommend for other real NASCAR fans.

Hard to pause!!

I never really liked Gordon growing up watching him race since his 1st race as a child mainly because he won all the time and my driver, Rick Mast, who never won a cup race had my full attention. This book really made me a Gordon fan from all his off track work with kids and caring for other drivers off track as well. Great guy. I wish I knew all this growing up watching him so I could have been a Gordon fan but better late than never. Great book!

I am now a Gordon fan
