Books with author Bill Holmes

Readers will be revved up to meet Mark Martin, one of the most accomplished drivers in NASCAR history. Martin has been a star on the racetrack for more than 25 years. From his early years in racing, he has shown that hard work and skill pay off. At over 50 years old, Mark Martin is still considered a driver to watch for on the racetrack. Thrilling photographs, a rich backmatter section, and a concise timeline accompany the narrative.

FACES OF CHRISTMAS PAST is an engaging, middle-aged look at the perils of Christmas, our own self-imposed burdens of ritual duty (like the newsy Christmas Xerox), and the more unsettling fact that successive Christmases, more even than New Year’s, mark the passing of our life from childhood to death. "Old Christmas card photos show us how we’ve aged," says author Bill Holm, "reminding us that, though time may curve in Einstein’s physics, in our small life it is a straight line to white hair and bifocals." Holm also reminds us of the great consoling ritual of music, so rich and full of feeling at Christmas. Our best defense against age and death may be singing, he says, so we’d better open our mouths with courage and spirit to let the songs come.
