About the Author:
Theo Ehret (1920–2012) was the house photographer at the Olympic Auditorium in downtown Los Angeles from the mid 1960s until the early 1980s. His evocative work captured the enormous wrestling personalities of that era―Muhammad Ali and André the Giant, George Foreman and Roberto Durán, among others―and also the sport’s sub-genre known as “apartment wrestling”.
Review:
Compelling, erotic, and, yes, stroke-worthy. -- Bookforum, December 2001
Ehret captures the lost spirit of wrestling's past with 488 pages of violent rage and, believe it or not, beauty. -- Hustler, December 2001
Equal parts stroke fodder and sports history, Exquisite Mayhem celebrates the sexier side of America's favorite form of organized brutality. -- Hustler, December 2001
