The Way of the Thumb: A Practical Guide to the Semisweet Science of Thumb Wrestling

Often ranked with tiddly-winks and curb-jumping as one of the more dubious activities considered sports, thumb wrestling has yet to receive the respect the author of this book thinks it deserves. Three-time thumb-wrestling champion Oscar Villalon remedies the situation in this amusing and useful book that's ideal for gift-giving. Villalon's step-by-step instructions share the secret pins, holds, and moves that have made him a champ, while graphic artist Joe Shoulak's illustrations demonstrate the moves. With this book, even the most reticent couch- or barstool-athlete can triumph.
