"The book's worth it, believe me. I've learned a lot reading the book. It's a fascinating era that even the historians in the United States don't know a lot about. Everyone who has any drive to learn about wrestling needs this book in their library." - Dave Meltzer, Wrestling Observer Newsletter "...has memories of the era flooding back... a trip down memory lane in an easy-to-digest format." - Sports Book Of The Month "Absolutely thrilling.
