“A Wrestling Life details Gable’s most profound triumphs and disappointing losses, both on the mat and off. He’s been a primary inspiration to me since I was 15, and this book will show you why. In a modern world of political correctness and glad handing, the art of the fight is highly undervalued. Allow Dan to show you another way.”

Tim Ferriss, New York Times bestselling author of The Four-Hour Work Week
