My goal here is to give you my honest
recommendations for books. I hope to give
people good guidance in their purchasing decisions. The
books will be purchased through the Amazon affiliate program with no
extra cost for you and a small commission for Bigsteel that hopefully
I will be able to use to further improve the content of Bigsteel.
This is a
very odd book. The book covers the usual UFO's, ghosts,
Monsters and weird pictures, but it goes beyond these somewhat
"normal" things for books of this genre and covers
such true oddities as "Rat Kings," Monkey Chains, Animal
councils and law-courts (really weird) talking cats dogs and
calculating horses (one of the most intriguing and maybe good for
tax time, I don't know). One of the things I liked about the
book is that the authors do offer some dose of skepticism and don't
blindly report everything in the book.

How to Think like Leonardo
da Vinci
Ok, this has nothing to do with Strength
training, but this is a fascinating book that quite frankly, changed
my life for the better. The book is about the genius of Da
Vinci, and how his genius extended to all areas of human endeavor.
There is a connection with da Vinci and strength, however, in that
he was known to bend horseshoes.
This is the definitive work on the subject.
Although I am not a Martial Arts expert, I own this book and it is
highly recommended. I friend of mine who is very knowledgeable
about Martial Arts told me that most other books borrow heavily from
this work. Get the source!
