As a fan of the classic stars of Wrestling I could not believe my luck when I finally received this book - all the great guys from the early 90s in one volume! This is an illustrated book of the best kind, great photographs, clean layout, good printing. I love going through it over and over again to marvel at the poses and outfits of my stars. Oldschool indeed!

Review Date: 2006-07-08
Boxing aficionados should devour this book. Others will get to
meet a beautiful person. On occasion I felt the author wandered
off the main road, thankfully he always returned to Johnny. This
book was well overdue. I found it hard to put it down. If your
tear ducts need a little lubrication this might do the trick. I
think Johnny was loved by all those who came in contact with him, I believe it was rightfully so.

When Men Were Men

Review Date: 2004-06-17
This is an excellent, though admittedly light, read. If you have any interest in history, wrestling(non-WWE style), or even the early 20th century you're sure to enjoy this book. I read it in one go years back and am know reading it again. If you're one of those people like me who practice one or more forms of grappling such as BJJ, Judo, Submission Wrestling, et al, you'll be entertained and impressed by the now largely, forgotten giants of yesterday. If you're not a grappler you'll want to be after reading this book. It's a great read, not exactly Quantum Theory, but well worth the time for the history it describes alone.

A basic primer on homosexuality issues in mainline churches
Helpful Votes: 10 out of 11 total.
Review Date: 2000-06-19
This is an excellent survey (118 pages) of the issues people in the U.S.A. raise in the church's wrestling with how to treat homosexuals. While the doctrinal examples are United Methodist, the biblical issues apply to any denomination. It reads like it comes from a newspaper columnist, which it does.

It would be a good quick read for anyone wanting to understand the history of homosexual issues in the church, the biblical references most commonly used to condemn or support homosexuality, and the specific doctrinal actions that the Methodist church has taken, beginning with the first inclusion of the subject in 1972.

It also includes excerpts from the writings of prominent (and not so prominent) people who resist the church's condemnation of homosexuals, and a surprising (at least to me) list of prominent people throughout history known to be homosexual.

A must read - Understand the facts instead of hysteria!
Helpful Votes: 11 out of 11 total.
Review Date: 2004-04-05
This is an awesome read that is fast paced and presents a counter to the pseudo-science and hysteria presented by the media and the "environmentalists". We've allowed half truths and propaganda to replace good scientific analysis in public policy, creating programs spending billions of dollars that might save one life in the next 20 years versus efforts that could save thousands now. Just yesterday (April 3rd, 2004), the San Jose Mercury news reported on the rescue of some bird eggs that would not survive in the wild due to thin egg shells because of DDT - a myth that has become a commonly held 'fact' that is refuted in Dini's book (with many others...). Be informed - know both sides of the issues - read this book!

The pictures are great. Rare never before seen photos like Million Dollar Man with the wwf championship belt. Great reviews on many superstars as Hulk Hogan, Lex Luger, Ric Flair, Sting, and many more. And reviews rising tag teams like the Steiner Brothers, Nasty Boys, Hart Foundation, and those wild and zaney Bushwackers.

"Hercules meets Dawson's Creek" - good book for kids
Helpful Votes: 0 out of 1 total.
Review Date: 2001-09-25
At 14, superhuman Canyon Terry was the world's mightiest boy. But the young athlete's short temper proves to be his undoing.

When Canyon thinks someone is hurting his family and friends, he uses his superhuman strength and other powers to inflict gruesome vengeance. But repeatedly, his efforts are rebuffed by the very people he thinks he is protecting.

When he is held back from pursuing an attempted killer, Canyon loses all patience, and turns his wrath upon his best friend, Western Cobert. Canyon's callousness severs their friendship, and causes Western to fall into the hands of Adam, a demonic youth who takes control of Western's body in his plan to destroy his superhuman rival.

"The Collector of Souls" is a fast-reading and entertaining story. It is a sequel to "Child Over Human", but it is not necessary to read the first book to understand the plot, as most of the necessary details are explained in the text. Like the first book, this story combines drama and fantasy.

This book is more action-oriented than "Child Over Human," and contains many scenes that display Canyon's superhuman physical strength and other powers. Canyon Terry is a tough, macho character with a heart.

This book is suitable for younger readers and is "child-safe" - no profanity, no steamy sex.
