The Lost Years by Dillard
This book started as a self-serving exercise to personally organize the major details and interesting facts of each Indianapolis 500 over the 100-year history of the greatest race in the world. For many of us passionate racing fans who have attended a multitude of 500s, there is a tendency for the details of the races to (somewhat) blend together. I hope this book will help to provide clarity in this regard, as well as educate. During high school, many of us chose to use CliffsNotes to assist in the education process. This book is somewhat patterned after that concept. It falls somewhere between Donald Davidson and Rick Schaffer's Autocourse Official History of the Indianapolis 500-the best and by far the most detailed book on the history of the Indianapolis 500-and a multitude of pictorial books with limited information. I hope it will prove to be an easy read with entertaining and educational information.In the wilds of central Florida, Dillard was pampered as a child. She fled Florida after leaving her mother's protective arms to live in places including Washington, D.C., Vermont, and? She now has a two-hundred-pound husband and two ninety-pound Labrador retrievers, all of which are well-trained but still think of themselves as lapdogs. She is the author of numerous Star Trek(TM) books, as well as the acclaimed Diaries of the Family Dracul trilogy and the historical fantasy The Burning Times as Jeanne Kalogridis (her evil alter-ego).
