  Gordon Solie - Something Left Behind
Code: BOOK09
Price: $19.95
Quantity in Basket: none

NEW!  "Gordon Solie - Something Left Behind "...Who cares whether these thoughts of mine are ever printed? The important premise is they have been written. Whether anyone else ever reads them or not is transcended by the fact that I have expressed my own truisms." -

Gordon Solie Something Left Behind is more than the story of the man considered by most as the greatest announcer in the history of professional wrestling. While it certainly chronicles in detail his meteoric rise to the top of his role in professional wrestling, it offers much more. It is truly an invaluable journey through the private, inner dialogue of a man who will forever remain famous for his voice. This collection of personal stories, poems, pictures and inner thoughts from the "Dean of Professional Wrestling Announcers" is almost as priceless as Solie's numerous contributions to the world of Florida wrestling and stock car racing. 

Most fans are raving about the 150 photos as they are the prose, including many of the greatest wrestling photographs ever. The pictures paint the story how of a young man, who as a child, would entertain his family with play-by-plays of radio sport programming, worked his way to becoming the premier television wrestling announcer in the world. Never-before published personal Solie writings, including the beginnings of a screenplay and various short stories accompany the pictures. Thought- provoking poems detailing the ups and downs of the wrestling world offer an exclusive insight into this often- controversial sport and is a true treat for any fan.

By daughter Pam Allyn and son-in-law Bob Allyn. Hardcover - 224 pages.
