Om Have A Good Week... Till Next Week
"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. Cannot get enough of it." - Marc Haynes, Wrestle Me Podcast For six years, the stars of Britain's ITV wrestling told their stories to Fighting Spirit Magazine's John Lister. Now these in-depth biographies of more than 50 grapplers come together in the ultimate history of the 'World of Sport' era. From Adrian Street to William Regal, from Tiny Tom Thumb to Giant Haystacks, these are the true stories of amazing lives in and out of the ring.
