    I recommend a stack of Encyclopedia Brittanica Special Editions.

    They hold down a Heavy Bag stand very effectively

    Championship fighting: Explosive power and aggressive defense by Jack Dempsey

    Most inspiring book I've read, you can find it online for free in various places

    old as hell but wicked nonetheless

    I just checked out that book at Halbert's website. Looks really comprehensive. It's $30 new/from her website or like $19 used on Amazon.com

    Hello, I'm Italian and in my country I can not find this book in any way. I wanted to ask if you had scanned the book because I'm very interested.
