Who knows how many teenagers in the 1960s bought Strength &amp; Health magazine primarily to inhale John McCallum's articles - he taught us to squat, how to achieve success through hard work, and how to care for our health as we built size and strength, and the whole time, he entertained us with his stories filled with such characters as the legendary Maurice Jones, the mythical Marvin, and the mountainous Doug Hepburn. Here they are: the full collection of the original John McCallum articles, classic gems. If you were to only buy one book - ever - on how to train, this is it. 288 pp.

Mastery of Hand Strength is the book on grip strength - the one that every grip guy in the last 10 years has read, probably at least twice. John Brookfield was the second man in the world to officially close the fearsome No. 3 Captains of Crush Gripper and the first to officially bend the IronMind Red Nail, and he has inspired and educated countless people who have gone on to excel in these areas. If strong hands and mighty wrists appeal to you, it's your starting point for a world-class grip. 120 pp.

O.K., so we weren't able to convince Paul to include a good recipe for chicken-fried steak, but what he did serve up is a humorous but insightful account of effective basic powerlifting training. Don't look here if you think your next gains come from going triple-ply or your next win depends on shopping for the right federation. Do stop by though if you think a little horse sense is just what's called for when it comes to basic training for powerlifting. 96 pp.

From America's Heartland, the Great Plains, comes the genuine article when it comes to real-world strength and power: Steve Justa. Justa is the guy whose original "Barrel Lifting" course (contained in this book) was a cult favorite for years, and for anyone who remembers his White Buffalo ad, we need say no more. If you want to find out what you've been missing by hiding out with only really nice weights to lift, grab this - the original - "functional strength" training book. 112 pp.

Rock, Iron, Steel: The Book of Strength

Justa, Steve

What'd he really squat? How about the back lift and those one-arm presses? If you want to know, you'll want to read this book. An Olympic gold medalist, world champion and world record holder in weightlifting, Paul Anderson is widely considered by the leading authorities to be one of the strongest men who ever lived, and his unofficial lifts continue to be the source of jaw-dropping wonder. This highly acclaimed book combines a readable style with scholarly precision; it compiles the principle articles on Paul Anderson from the major periods of his life, documents and reviews his lifts - both official and unofficial - and tells the story of the man who was dubbed a wonder of nature by the awestruck Russians, who were happy to stand out in the rain just for a chance to watch him lift. 160 pp.

Paul Anderson: The Mightiest Minister

For Canadian Ben Weider, world leader in physical fitness, there was no equal to Louis Cyr, his boyhood idol. While "Weider's scientific approach to bodybuilding and Cyr's brute power could not be further apart," Weider chose to pay tribute to the amazing Canadian strongman in a colorful, picturesque accounting of his life and times, and his extraordinary accomplishments. You'll be transported to the late 1800s, when Louis Cyr first distinguished himself as a child prodigy of strength, and his mother changed his name to Louis, honoring the kings of France since he was the king of strength, and insisted that he wear long golden curls in the tradition of Samson. First published in 1976 in English, we are honored to offer this definitive account of the phenomenal Louis Cyr. Mr. Weider argues in his final chapters that Louis Cyr "still is the strongest man who ever lived so far as recorded history can tell us." Do you agree?
