They Call Him Cale: The Life and Career of NASCAR Legend Cale Yarborough

Long before Jimmie Johnson and Jeff Gordon ruled the NASCAR standings, the man they call Cale dominated the racetracks like no driver has before or since. Born William Caleb Yarborough in Timmonsville, South Carolina, Cale emerged from the grief of losing his father at a young age to become arguably the greatest stock-car driver of all time, blazing a trail through the sports landscape that helped turn auto racing into a multibillion dollar industry.

The story of Cale's life, told for the first time ever in this authorized biography, is a tale of adventure, perseverance, and, above all, desire. After 43 years as a NASCAR driver and owner, Cale amassed a career record that remains staggering to this day: 560 races, 319 top-10 finishes, 83 victories, three NASCAR championships, and four Daytona 500 victories. Along the way, Cale would find himself rubbing fenders--and sometimes trading punches--with some of the biggest names in racing, including Dale Earnhardt, Richard Petty, Darrell Waltrip, and the Allison brothers. Written by lifelong NASCAR enthusiast Joe McGinnis, They Call Him Cale is the incredible true story behind one of the racing world's biggest stars and fiercest competitors, as well as the tale of a quintessential American who lives by one creed: "You can't work yourself to death, but you can work yourself to live."
