Summertime. When thoughts turn to sun, sand, surf... and sharks! Just in time for beach season, Men's Adventure Library editors Robert Deis and Wyatt Doyle dive deep into long unseen shark-themed pulp fiction and savage full-color illustration art drawn from three decades of classic men's adventure magazines (or MAMs ), most out of print since their original publication. In addition, these graphic, action-packed tales of shark encounters are paired with commentary and mythbusting by a celebrated panel of contemporary shark experts who separate the stories' fact from fiction. "My God, the Sharks Got the Women!"..."Shark-Battling Dolphins Saved My Life"..."A Man-Eating Shark Pack Against Scuba Divers"..."The Headhunting Shark That Destroyed a Texas Family"..."The Sharks Got My Legs"... Wild, untamed shark fiction and hard-nosed shark science collide in one high-octane, full color collection. There's never been a book like it! Sharks and hard-boiled shark hysteria were an integral part of MAMs from the very beginning, regularly appearing as villains across the magazines' three-decade lifespan, in stories by the likes of GODFATHER author Mario Puzo and Robert Edmond Alter , and in the killer covers and interior art by pantheon illustration artists like Mort Künstler and Samson Pollen . In addition to expert commentary and critiques, a preface by Steve Cheskin , creator of Discovery's Shark Week , and an afterword by MEGA SHARK VS. GIANT OCTOPUS director "Ace Hannah" ( Jack Perez ) affirm the sturdy bloodlines between the shark terror of yesterday and today's sharkmania. MANEATERS is available as a 170-page softcover and as a 192-page expanded hardcover with additional content. Sink your teeth in.
