### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Great book!
  

*by D***S on Reviewed in the United States on March 22, 2023*

Loved following the life and expectations of a sumo wrestler!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Great story about Chad, and sumo in general
  

*by S***U on Reviewed in the United States on January 19, 2021*

I learned a lot about sumo with this book, as well as about Akebono, Konishiki and Takamiyama, all Hawaiian sumo "pioneers".  I am amazed at what Chad Rowan had to go through as a gaijin in the sumo world, but he was able to learn the language and the culture, and adapt his strengths and personality to the demands and expectations of the sumo sport and traditions.  As a reader with mid-level knowledge of the sport and Japanese culture I found the book very readable and interesting. I learned a lot about Hawaiian culture as well.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Nice Sumo biography
  

*by K***S on Reviewed in the United States on November 1, 2009*

There are very few books on Sumo out there and I was excited to find this one. It gives you an interesting insight into Sumo and was worth reading for Sumo lovers. Most people outside Sumo think of it as overweight people bouncing against each other but the guys are excellent athletes who train very hard.
