Stephanie Kojima, the daughter of the late Hiro Matsuda, has published a new book, The Hiro Matsuda Stories: Samurai Spirit.  Promotional material for the book notes, "Hiro Matsuda tells his life stories, from growing up in Japan, struggling to become a professional wrestler and travel to America, rising to the top and ongoing career, to battling colon cancer in his final months. It is not only a story about professional wrestling, but also a human story about fulfilling a dream and enjoying life. It is the story about a man creating his life with unwavering determination."

The Bugsy McGraw book hit its mark on Kickstarter and will be published.

British star Kendo Nagasaki has also released an autobiography titled Kendo Nagasaki and the Man Behind the Mask.  Promotional material for that book notes, "This honest and absorbing autobiography gives a fascinating, revealing, no-holds-barred account of the life of the man behind Kendo Nagasaki’s mask, Peter Thornley, from his challenging origins and early life, to his natural sporting ability which was honed in judo and Zen, to training in the world’s toughest Catch Wrestling gym, to Kendo’s debut and becoming an icon of professional wrestling of the 1970s which was watched by millions.  This book lifts the lid on his personal life, the world of wrestling behind the cameras, his success with different businesses, and his current endeavours with the Lee Rigby Foundation – indeed, all the proceeds from this book will be donated to the Foundation to support its work – it’s a must-read!"
