Summary: The Truth About Austin
Review: I thought that this book was the best auto\biography that I have read. I would recommend this book to anyone that wants to know about the "Texas Rattlesnake". This is a must read for any Austin fan. There is also a bonus: J.R.'s point of view on certain things that Austin discusses in the book.

Summary: A Fantastic Book!
Review: I was always a fan of Stone Cold, but this book shows so many other sides to him and makes him a real person. I also learned a lot about the wrestling business I didn't know. It was a great read and I have already started reading it sgain, picking up new things. It is really a great book that tells a lot on how it really works behind the scenes.

Summary: Jim Ross ruins this book
Review: I was under the impression this was supposed to be Steve Austin's autobiography, but I was wrong. What it turns out to be be is part Austin's book and part some fat man with one eye crying about people he doesn't like. Ross makes many tasteless comments that should not have been printed. Most have nothing to do with Austin or his career. It just has to do with many personal vendettas of this mutant. This was unnecessary and Ross should have just wrote the preface like normal people do. He totally butchered and destroyed the book and this will turn off the reader. Its a shame because Austin was very honest bu ti ti is overshadowed by Ross's crying.

Summary: Stone Cold truth or the luke warm truth
Review: I would like to firstly say im a big stone cold fan and was looking forward to
this book egarly. I have read alot of wrestling books from Mick Foleys to
Pipers. So to hear the stone cold saga and find out how the man really feels
about alot of things and people had me excited. I picked up the book and well
its written fairly well but you never seem to really get into the book and the
stories revealed arent really told in the form you want to see them, there is
little real detail about anything, its basically a log of incidents of his life
without austin revealing how he really feels, which would have been the whole
purpose of the book. I enjoyed the book but finished quite disappointed as it
never really told you the full story. I guess they kept it quite politically
correct, so no wrestlers or the wwe would be upset by this book but if defies
the purpose of the book really. If you like stone cold read this book but just
dont expect a real insight into the man himself

Summary: Worth the Wait!!!
Review: I, too, read the book in an afternoon - I couldn't put it down! Being a long-time Steve Austin fan, it was wonderful to get those stories from his beginnings to the present.
I truly enjoyed the book from cover to cover, the many pictures, the family insights and tales, J.R.'s outlook, even the medical info was interesting (I'm a nurse ;))!
You have to admire a man, who seems so private, to just put it out there like this. Although he has repeatedly stated that he doesn't want people to feel sorry for him, you can't help empathizing with him on the health and personal levels. This book shows that although he is adored by millions, he's also a man trying to live a life just like the rest of us - only the whole world is watching him.

Summary: Stone Cold Waste Of Time
Review: Let me first say that I'm a big wrestling fan, and that I think Steve Austin is one of the best things to happen to wrestling in a long time.
Having said that - DON'T read this book. Of all the wrestling books I've read, this was by far the worst. If you've spent even a little time on the internet or read articles in the WWE magazines, then you already know everything covered in this book.
I understand that alot of wrestling books are ghosted, but this was the worst case. Seriously I'm not going into alot of detail - don't pick this book up.
And that's the bottom line...

Summary: Not worth reading
Review: Seeing as this is only the 2nd WWE Biograph I have really looked forward to (Hogans being the first) it had hugh expectations to live up to... and it did.
This book will take you from his early days as a child to his ECW Apperances to his matches with the Bret & Owen Hart to his last match against the Rock at WM 19 at the sold out Safeco Field in Seattle, this was a solid no holds barred book will all the details that the media never knew about.
This is a sure read for any person who even remotly like WWE!

Summary: Let The Truth Be Known
Review: Steve Austin's bio is an intriguing tale of how Steve Williams emerged as a wrestling icon. Some good information is provided about Steve's growing up in a fair but firm family environment. Steve's pre WWE days are discussed with some detail specifically is relationship with Brian Pillman. Steve certainly learned how to cut a promo from his former tag team partner.Of course the information on Steve's WWE escapades are extremely interesting. Steve does show how is in ring persona is an extension of his personality but not the true man inside. He discusses his relationship with Vince McMahon, Kevin Nash, Owen Hart, and others in a fair way. Steve is also fair in discussing his personal life and his failed marriages. He understands his shortcommings and that is the sign of a true man. The overall impression is that the reader gets a true inside story of Steve Austin, WWE icon.

Summary: Oh Hell Yeah
Review: Stonecold's autobiography is another great book produced by WWE. You get an in depth look at Steve's past and present and his views on things that have occurred during his career. You witness Austin's suffering, his pain from all of his marriages and his inability to keep in contact with the two most important people in his life which is of course his daughters. There are still some questions about Stonecold that have not been answered but overall this is a fine read for any WWE fan.

Summary: MAKE IT 3 1/2 STARS BECAUSE I SAID SO
Review: There is no denying that Stone Cold is one the most colorful characters in the history of wrestling entertainment. This book was slightly above average. Its easy to read but I'll be honest, it just didn't provide me with the insight that I was looking for. The Stone Cold Truth is an autobiography that goes into detail of the many decent people in the wrestling business that Steve Williams has encountered. His failed marriages are a result of the profession that he has chosen and the man that he is -- neither are wrong. I read the book, I liked it. But I didn't love it and I wouldn't read it again because there is just nothing special about it. If you love Stone Cold Steve Austin -- this is the book for you. If you want real insight into wrestling entertainment seek elsewhere.
