1.0 out of 5 stars Don't Buy This Book!, December 12, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Wrestling's Heels and Heroes (Paperback)

This book is completely worthless to anyone who is already a wrestling fan. It gives very short and undetailed biographies for many wrestlers. It is FILLED with mistakes, including listing wrestlers as belonging to the wrong company, and misquoting people. Whatever you do, don't buy this book. It is a waste of money.

This review is from: Wrestling's Heels and Heroes (Paperback)

This book is great if you are a wrestling fan and it provides 16 full-colored photos of you favorite wrestling stars and an in-depth look at all the heels and heros of wrestling. This book takes you to a place you've never been before and it provides information about the wrestlers when they are not in the ring as well. Not only does it have the superstars of today, but it also has the great legends of wrestling from the past. Robert Picarello, author of a New York Times bestseller Rulers of the Ring, did a magnificent job creating this book. I highly recommend this book to all wrestling fans because this book has off-the-hook information on over 50 wrestling stars!!

Thank You Very Much!!! Your Time Is Appreciated!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars May not be Shakespeare, but it gives you the facts!, January 29, 2002

This review is from: Wrestling's Heels and Heroes (Paperback)

This book was great! It had all I want to know about my favorite wrestlers and many cool photos. All my friends keep borrowing my copy--I think I'm going to have to buy all of them their own copies! I even brought it with me to WWF New York--the restaurant in Times Square--and everyone was impressed witha ll that this book covered. My 7th grade students even keep borrowing my book--and they usually don't like to read anything! So, as long as it holds their interests and keeps them reading, I'm thrilled.

Like I said, if you're looking for Shakespeare--buy a copy of Hamlet. But if you want the background on all your favorite wrestlers, this is the book for you! Just get your own copy--I'm not lending mine out anymore!
