Summary: One of the best books out there.
Review: This book was an unbelievable story about a wrestler's journey to become a great entertainer. It is a very interesting novel from cover to cover written by the New York Times best selling author Mick Foley himself. I was very impressed with how good a writer he is for his first book. Mick Foley is a popular wrestler known for his devastating injuries such his lose of an ear, second degree burns on his shoulder and arm, broken jaw, over 325 stitches, and many more due to his extreme devotion to wrestling and his respect for the fans. I am not much of a reader but this book I could not put down. It also talks about the other side of wrestling the stuff you can not see. This story is not just for wrestling fans either. It talks about things that even non-wrestling fans can relate with. This book explains that if you want something bad enough and you work hard enough you can achieve your goal. Many people told him that he would never amount to anything in wrestling. He set out to prove them wrong and this book says how good it feels to prove people wrong and to reach your goal.

Summary: Blood, Sweat, and a Helluva Great Book!
Review: Mankind's book is a blessing to all us devoted wrestling fans out there! It is a special blend of behind the scenes information, autobiographical drama, humor, realism, fantasy, and everything else in between! It answers questions many wrestling fans have been wondering about for the last few decades, gets into the head of Mick Foley, the author, while he was going through the hellish matches that have made the sport so popular and yet so controversial. It is a refreshing read and amazingly well written despite what critics may say, espcially for first-time autor Foley. Go get 'em Mick!

Summary: It was worth the 13 dollars
Review: After reading this book it did increase my understanding of where ManKind was comming from but it did little to satisfy my curiousity in WWF character personalities. At times the book seems jumbled and hard to understand, he relies on the reader already knowing the names of wrestling moves and terminology. The last two chapters seem to be thrown into the book just to provide a finish that gives closure. It seems that 85-90% of the book is about Mankind and EWF and WCW and the rest about WWF. I was hoping for more WWF. It was fun to read and well worth the 13 dollars

Summary: A Tale Of Sacrifice And A Great Man's Love Of Wrestling
Review: I have read many literary masterpieces, and can honestly say that Mick Foley's Have A Nice Day ranks up there with the best of them. This book shows how much Mick Foley loves the SPORT and his family. Mick Foley's book shows us just how much of a family man and kid at heart this great man really is. I recommend this book to any fan of Mick Foley or professional wrestling.

Summary: A very good autobiography, but not quite perfect
Review: I have noticed that a lot of the other reviewers have given this book five stars, and I must admit I almost did too. But five stars is a 'perfect' mark, and although I enjoyed reading this book a lot, I would not say it was perfect. I feel that reviewers - myself included - give products the full five stars far too easily. This book follows the career of Mick Foley, otherwise known as Mankind, Dude Love and Cactus Jack, from late high school to the point where he first captured the ultimate prize in wrestling, the WWF championship. His journey to superstardom was long and hard, and Mick sustained some horrific injuries, but he overcame all the obstacles and acheived his dream. Mick Foley is Tanacity Personified and this book shows just how much effort it can take to become a professional wrestler. This book is very funny and very well written, I never got bored reading it and would almost certainly read it again. Although this book would be a good read for people not familiar with the world of wrestling, the book is cleary aimed at wrestling fans. You have to have watched a fair ammount wrestling to understand what a 'Tombstone Piledriver' is or to understand Mick Foley's relationship with Al Snow. Another minor flaw in my oppinion is the lack of information about Mick's relationship with the Undertaker, with whom Mick competed in the infamous 'Hell in a cell' match, or with his tag team partner Glenn Jacobs - a.k.a. Kane. None of these flaws are very big, just enough to reduce my rating to four stars. Initially I thought this book was written a bit too soon because Mick Foley's career was by no means over when the book was released. Now, however, I think the timescale is pretty much perfect. The point where Mick won the WWF title was the right place to finish. If you write a book about acheiving a goal, continuing after the point where you achive that goal is pointless. This is a book about acheiving every wrestlers ultimate goal, so winning the world title belt is the perfect place to finish. This is an excellent book and I would recommend it to wresling fans. To non-fans I would still recommend this if the concept of the book appeals to you. This is an excellent autobiography, and a great achievement by Mick Foley. Given the courage and tanacity that Mick has shown I almost feel guilty for not giving it five stars.
