The Manolo Martinez Book/Meet Dale Pierce Saturday

Meet Dale Pierce at Orca Books in Olympia, Wa this Saturday night at 6 pm, signing copies of the book, Manolo Martinez.

Those interested in the book, but unable to attend may find it here. http://www.lulu.com/shop/dale-pierce/manolo-martinez/paperback/product-20960908.html

While much has been written in Spanish about the moody and controversial Mexican maestro,  this is perhaps the only work in English about him.

The book includes a look at the controversial figura from start to finish. Chapters include his corrida in Mexicali with Camino & Antonio Lomelin and a triumphant Tijuana event with Curro Leal and Ruiz Loredo in complete summary, a look at his years as a novillero following a set of triumphs in Guadalajara, selected results of his corridas, his Mexico City triumphs, a look at his rivals and more....

An offbeat and unique look at one of bullfighting's most enigmatic of figures.
