From Booklist 
It's been called "America's premiere sports car race," and it's a singular test of automotive endurance. Begun in the early 1960s as a three-hour race, the contest evolved gradually into a 24-hour marathon that makes use of multiple drivers and crews as well as the special features of the Daytona International Speedway track, which allows spectators to view the race as a whole from grandstand seats. Veteran racing journalist O'Malley delivers a colorful, even dramatic chronicle of the race, year by year (1974 was the only year it wasn't run), and the clear, mostly full-color photos, one on nearly every page, show the crew, the cars, the drivers, the track, and the pulsing action. Fans will enjoy thumbing through the pictures, especially those of early competitions, when Porsches and split-window Corvettes ran side by side with Rambler Marlins and Pontiac Tempests. Not as much fun as the real thing but a treat for armchair racing fans.
