Gorgeous George: The Outrageous Bad-Boy Wrestler Who Created American Pop Culture
9/10 Honestly, probably one of the best wrestling reads I've ever picked up. The book is SO much more than just a biography on GG - which is great in itself, because there is just so many fascinating details on his life and interesting insights from friends / family, etc. - it's really a time period piece that paints a vivid picture of the many amazing changes in our history throughout the decades that it takes place in. Great book, with quotes and info. from John Waters, Bob Dylan, James Brown, Ali and many others - after reading this, it [his story] definitely deserves a Showtime / HBO mini-series of some nature. |
