MASTER OF THE RING: Gordon Solie
Release Date: December 1984 / Authors: Gordon Solie / Publisher: North River Press
--- This has to be read with the understanding that kayfabe was still somewhat intact at the point it was written. If
you can get past that, it is a fun read, but not much more than that. If you can't, there's no use in finding this book.
Recommended if you trip over it, but don't hire a detective to track it down for you. (Rich Tate)

THE MIDNIGHT EXPRESS & JIM CORNETTE 25TH ANNIVERSARY SCRAPBOOK
Release Date: April 2009 / Authors: Jim Cornette and Tim Ash / Publisher: Self-Published
--- More than just a "scrapbook", this book is an excellent piece of historical reference for any fan of the Midnight
Express during their evolution and prime years. Casual MX fans will also appreciate the detail found throughout
the book as a reference tool during the JCP/WCW era as well. Although not the biographical recounting one
would expect, it still does not disappoint. Highly recommended. (Rich Tate)

THE MOUTH OF THE SOUTH: the Jimmy Hart Story
Release Date: November 2004 / Author: Jimmy Hart / Publisher: ECW Press

Hart's always sunny hyperbole entertaining. (Trent Van Drisse)

MYSTERIES OF WRESTLING: Solved
Release Date: June 2005 / Authors: Adam Kleinberg and Adam Nudelman / Publisher: ECW Press
--- Not very in depth but does have some interesting quotes and stuff. Recommended if you can pick it up for a
couple bucks. (Crimson Mask)
--- I found it entertaining in spots, but honestly didn't see the point in it. There's a lot of laughs along the way, but
there's a lot of wasted time in between. If you are a fan of the show, and it is a good show, you'll want it for that
reason alone, but if you aren't, select a different book. Recommended for hardcore fans of the program. (Rich
