This is for Jason:
I know that there won't be any further printings of your dad's memoir because it's a risk. I totally get that. I don't understand why you haven't tried any alternate distribution methods, like print on demand and/or e-book versions (you could do both via Amazon at the very least). These don't have any risk involved because there's no initial investment: Amazon (and similar companies) takes part of what's paid for each book.
I was lucky enough to buy the book when it first came out, but people are constantly asking me if there will ever be a new printing, and it would be a shame if they never get to read the book, which is as good a wrestling book as there's ever been.
Thanks!

I second this. I was lucky enough to grab the last available copy at the 2009 Fanfest in Charlotte and I absolutely think it's the best wrestling book ever written. I would love for others to get the opportunity to read it through the alternate means of distribution Bix outlined. Jason, what are your thoughts on attempting such an undertaking?

I guess ebook would be too much trouble.I guess the only ones who will get to hear Garys storys are the few who were lucky enough to get the book. I wonder if Gary only meant for a few to hear his story?

I am so happy to say i got a copy of the book when it was first released. It absolutely is the most honest and best book EVER written by anyone from inside the business. I have read it at least 5 or 6 times and learn something new everytime.

I love this book, too. Would be nice to see a Kindle version, so folks that want it in the future can read it in a convenient format.

Here's an idea! Jason:why don't you type out the book in a series of df messages.Shouldn't tale too long.You could even add a couple capters of your own memories.
