Newly Released: Louisville's Greatest Show: The Story of the Allen Athletic Club by John Cosper

Kentucky wrestling history John Cosper brings the story of Louisville, KY's first professional wrestling promotion. Released in February 2017, Cosper covers the early years of pro wrestling in one of the most often overlooked wrestling hotbeds in the United States. Whereas his earlier book Bluegrass Brawlers was a big picture look at the history of the region, Louisville's Greatest Show focuses on the area's Golden Age (1935-1957). Cosper has also written Eat, Sleep, Wrestle and co-authored Kenny Bolin's I Probably Screwed You Too...  Cosper also runs the website eatsleepwrestle.com.

Louisville's Greatest Show: The Story of the Allen Athletic Club, is available on paperback at Amazon US
