For followers of pro wrestling, "Ballyhoo! The Roughhousers, Con Artists, and Wildmen Who Invented Professional Wrestling" by Jon Langmead is a must-read book. If you haven't picked it up yet, do so now! This is a tremendous book about wrestling history. Jon Langmead

A Brief Note: I've been asked for my thoughts on the recent revelations about VKM. I'm disgusted, and want the legal system to do its job, following every possible lead until this story is completely revealed. Until then, I'll say with certainty that VJM is rolling in his grave.

Dave Rueter wrote the enjoyable, "Kayfabe: A Love Story," which is filled with tales from an "alternate universe," featuring the WWF greats from 1985-'93. If you are looking for something from a talented author that will make you smile, this book is for you. WIBR

This book was one that needed to be written and Jon Finkel certainly did his research to produce a classic for all wrestling fans. Jon's addition to the literature of wrestling is a must-have. Buy the book and join the Books & Biceps community! Great work, Jon. Jon Finkel📚💪

In my recent posts, I recommended three terrific wrestling books by some really dedicated and talented authors. I've said it before and I'll say it again, please support wrestling historians, researchers and authors! It's a small community and so many stories need to be told!

I've also been wanting to mention John Ellul's great "Flowers for Adrian" book, the Adrian Adonis biography. If you haven't picked this book up yet, do so. John did an amazing job piecing this important story together and, as fans, we are all better for it! John Ellul

Book Recommendation: Zack Heydorn's "Stunning: The Wrestling Artistry of Steve Austin" is an enjoyable trip down memory lane, written by a talented author and storyteller. Impressively researched, this book is a must-read for fans of Stone Cold and the Attitude Era. Zack Heydorn
