This is a revealing memoir that will take you into the mind of the Russian Bear, both in and out of the ring.
I finished the book a few nights ago and I really enjoyed reading it a lot. Ivan is a very interesting guy and his life is a remarkable story. I also learned a lot about the wrestling business, at least the way it used to be when it was good from a fan and spectators standpoint. I assumed that the top guys made a whole lot more money. Perhaps they do today. I rattled off some of the names he mentioned to my brother and we had a lot of fun reminiscing, remember this guy, remember that guy, etc. I hope that the book is a huge success for both you and Ivan. Please let him know how much the guy who printed his book enjoyed reading it!
Just wanted to let you know that I just finished your book with Ivan Koloff. I must say, great job again. I found the book to be very entertaining from a wrestling fans perspective (since 1970) and also I found Ivans story and his trial of his faith to be tremendously inspiring. I will recommend this book to any and all.
I have now received and read the J.J., Ole, and Ivan books and all I can say is Bravo!! All three are great reads and even better than I thought they would be!! They blow away the sanitized works put out by the WWE. I can't wait for the Bruiser Brody book. And do you have an E.T.A. for Stan Hansen? Also, two more names come to mind when thinking of possible subjects: Kevin Sullivan and Abdullah The Butcher. Have either ever shown any interest in telling their no-doubt fascinating stories?
I just finished Ivan's Is That Wrestling Fake? and was enthralled and wanting more. It is a good read, full of interesting tidbits on the wrestling business, it's characters, and Ivan's life. In his book, he proves, without doubt, that God can save the worst of us.
Received the Koloff book. Can't wait to sit down and actually read it cover to cover. I keep grabbing it and reading bits and pieces here and there. It is another one of your masterpieces and couldn't be on a finer talent than Ivan Koloff, one of wrestling's all-time finest. We need one on Donnie Fargo now!
I loved your Ivan book. It was great. I would love to see a book that exposes the deaths related to drugs? I believe it is just terrible. Ivan is a friend. I am happy to see his life detailed in a book.
I received Ivan book today and thumbed thru it at lunch. GREAT pics in the book, especially near the end. I can't wait to read story tonight of Ivan, Bruno Sammartino, and
WWWF title swap. Thanks again for another great piece of work.
