Ned Beaumont
Paladin Press
, 1997
Great addition to you self-defense library!
Ned Beaumont does an exceptional job with Championship Streetfighting: Boxing as a Martial Art. In the beginning he outlines why boxing is effective for real fights. His argument for the effectiveness of boxing is right on the money and his examples illustrate this perfectly. He then moves to principles of the ring and street and the difference between gloves and bare fists. This chapter ...

Championship Swim Training
As a rookie coach I have found this publication invaluable. Although aimed at the 'top end' swimmer, with a little adjustment the lesson plans can be adapted to swimmers of any level. The drills are well laid out in a logical progression that benefits development of both the coach and the swimmer. Bill Sweetenham shows an incedible understanding of the art and science of swimming and has managed ...

And, Mr. Scott covers almost all of the issues with each movemment. The only ...

Omaha is rising a lot in popularity. Good Omaha players can benefit a lot from the recent influx of Hold Em players. Most general poker books have a chapter or two on Omaha but this book in particular will really help you improve your Omaha skills, be it Limit, PLO or Hi-Lo. It will show you how to defeat weak Hold Em players who overplay their aces and by proving hom important the old saying is: ...

I almost didn't buy this book . . .
I almost didn't buy this book. I have so many BBQ books, why would I need yet another? Truth is I was shopping for something else and just added this book to the order so the total would qualify for free shipping. Boy, am I glad I did! This is one GREAT book. Incredible recipes with regional influences from all over the US and Canada. And, I particularly love the authors use of fruit in so ...

Go Heels!
There are two great things about this book. The first being the freshness of the information. When a team wins a championship, the win is almost covered to death so to speak, so I was definately pleasantly suprised when the book contained many stories that I had not yet heard. Secondly, and probably the best thing about the book was the complete Tarheel Sports Network radio broadcast of the ...

Great Recipes, Good Instruction
I'd rate this as a great recipe book, and a good but not great BBQ instruction book. The author is not shy about telling you how good he is and he wants you to be just as proficient at cooking up great food. The book's recipes cover all kinds of meats, including beef, pork, lamb, chicken and even goat, plus there was a chapter on fish, an unexpected bonus. Whole sections are dedicated to ...

Only one has ten
If you are a sports fan, baseball fan, Yankees fan, or a Yogi fan this book won't disappoint. The book chronicles the tough, unlikely hero over his career in his words. In many ways Yogi was the bridge between the "old" Yankees (Di Maggio, etc.) and the Mantle / Maris Yankees and beyond. Great book! Fun read!

Great book for tournament players.
I bought this book a couple of months ago and found it to be an excellent book. Read this book first before reading a book like "Tournament Poker for Advanced Players" by Sklansky. This book will teach you how to play all the different hands in different postitions. It also has some great analysis of key hands played at the World Series of Poker.
How To Win The Championship: Hold'em Strategies for The Final Table

Inside TJ's Mind
I have almost 30 books on Hold'em. Other than Harrington's books which are excellent, almost none put you really, and I mean REALLY inside the mind of the author/player (Erick Lindgren's book does a good job of this though). I've had the good fortune to have met TJ a couple of times, and ask him some questions. But in How To Win The Championship he brings you into his thought process, to the ...

Worthwhile, but not as good as 'Brawl'
This book provides a good overview of the UFC since it's beginnings, providing a summary of how the sport got started and has evolved, the styles of fighting and profiles of various fighters. Unfortunately, it's not nearly as good or thorough as "Brawl", which is also written by Erich Krauss. Also many of the same fighters profiled in this book are profiled in 'Brawl,' so a lot of the ...

LOTS OF REALLY GOOD STUFF IN HERE!
. I think my review title says it all. I tried to come up with a way of summarizing the material in this 350 page book, and couldn't. There was too much! Jobson and Whidden, two world class sailors, packed each chapter full of information--well may not the first chapter--that was short. But the rest of them were long, detailed and packed to the gills with important information. ...
