THE FABULOUS MOOLAH: First Goddess of the Squared Circle
Release Date: August 2003 / Authors: Lillian Ellison and Larry Platt / Publisher: Regan Books
--- Nothing fabulous about Moolah or the book. Avoid this like the plague. Not recommended if you are
conservative with your money. (Mick N. Brawler)
FALL GUYS: the Barnums of Bounce
Release Date: January 1937 / Authors: Marcus Griffin and Toots Mondt / Publisher: Reilly & Lee
--- I thought this book was great! A very early expose on pro wrestling. I later read that much of this was a work,
perhaps even on the author himself, but I found this a fascinating account on the inner workings of pro wrestling
in the 1920s and 1930s. I highly recommend this book for those interested in pro wrestling history. (Trent Van
Drisse)
FOLEY IS GOOD: And the Real World is Faker than Wrestling
Release Date: May 2001 / Author: Mick Foley / Publisher: Regan Books
--- This was an entertaining book, but I don't get all the claims that it is the best wrestling book ever.
Recommended strongly, but not the masterpiece it's made out to be. (Mick N. Brawler)
--- I didn't go as "ga ga" for this book as the rest of the free world seemed to, but I still enjoyed it for the most part.
I recommend this book. (Trent Van Drisse)
FORGIVEN: One Man's Journey from Self-Glorification to Sanctification
Release Date: November 2005 / Author: Vince Russo / Publisher: ECW Press
--- I wasn't expecting to enjoy this one, but I was pleasantly surprised. Russo bares his soul and you get the
feeling that he is a better man for all he has endured in his life. A lot of questions are answered here.
Surprisingly recommended. (Rich Tate)
FRITZ VON ERICH: Master of the Iron Claw
Release Date: February 2005 / Author: Ron Mullinax / Publisher: Hats Off Books
Note: This is a re-release of a book called "the Secret of the Iron Claw", originally released through a different
publisher in 2002.
FROM MILO TO LONDOS
