If you’re in the mood for a good laugh and a deep dive into the wildest ‘athletes’ from antiquity, this is it. This book chronicles feats of strength from legends like ‘Milo,’ George Hackenschmidt and Eugen Sandow as well as ancient kings who supposedly possessed the physical ability to deftly kill their enemies with six foot long, fifty pound swords. It seems impossible to distinguish the fact from the mythological – but thats why this book is awesome.
