"I've learned so many things about Maurice. It was very revealing. I couldn't wait to read more about him, I was really captivated. I already had respect for Maurice; I have even more now." -- Raymond Rougeau, former WWE wrestler and announcer "A definitive history of this hardcore heel who lived life to its fullest and wrestled even harder. . . The authors did their homework well and we reap the reward of their efforts. Mad Dog is a must-have read for every serious fan of pro wrestling." -- George Schire, author of Minnesota's Golden Age of Wrestling "What made this book a good read was the research and writing about the inner workings of the professional wrestling circuit." -- The Guy Who Reviews Sports Books "There is a lot of detailed information about Vachon's career and it's obvious the authors spent a lot of time researching." -- Teena In Toronto "Fans of classic eras of wrestling (1960s-1980s) will enjoy this work, along with those that want to study more about Canadian wrestling. The book was entertaining, knowledgeable, and heart-filled all combined in one setting. ECW has another winner on its hands with Mad Dog." -- Lance Writes Blog "I never saw Mad Dog Vachon wrestle because he was before my time, but I always heard about how wild he was and after reading this book I now perfectly understand why people were so fascinated with him. It truly captures the essence of who Mad Dog Vachon was." -- WWE Superstar Kevin Owens "It sounds like he was a larger than life character." -- Dangerous Dan's Book Blog "Explores Vachon's career and personal struggles with painstakingly detailed historical research and through Maurice's own recollections and those of the people who knew him best." - Entertainment Report "Pat Laprade and Bertrand Hebert, who did the great book on Montreal wrestling history, wrote this one and I've seen it and it covers his entire life and that of the Vachon clan, wrestling in the 50s, 60s, 70s and 80s and some of the legendary events in Montreal as well as the AWA, where Vachon was an icon." -- Wrestling Observer
