Leonard T. Miller is a second-generation African-American auto racing team owner. He has fielded teams in NASCAR and open-wheel racing. Andrew Simon is a senior editor at ESPN The Magazine. His writing has appeared in The Rolling Stone Encyclopedia of Rock & Roll, VIBE and Complex.
The story of a pioneering African American NASCAR team fighting to open up the sport.
While I got tired of the details of the Millers' ignored e-mail solicitations and seemingly endless meetings at the headquarters of banks and the Big Three auto companies, I loved the overall story. Despite it all, Miller has written a generous book. He is not bitter, and he gives accolades to his supporters, both black and white (of whom there were many).
