“The Ugandan Giant” Kamala is a former WWE superstar wrestler who never spoke once during his 30 year wrestling career. Having wrestled the likes of Hulk Hogan, Andre The Giant, The Undertaker, Jake “The Snake” Roberts, and The Ultimate Warrior, readers from around the world will take interest in this book. It is a tell-all story of life, bouts with blatant racism, overcoming obstacles and the gritty underbelly of professional wrestling as a whole. It is a tale of inspiration and loaded with stories and humor. James Harris (aka Kamala) recently lost both legs to diabetes. While this book is a fundraiser that will help offset medical costs to a man that provided many years of entertainment to wrestling fans around the world, it was not just thrown together to make money. It is actually written in a way that fans really want with pictures, funny stories and behind the scenes dirt.

AN INSPIRATIONAL STORY ABOUT A WWE WRESTLER WHO LOST BOTH LEGS TO DIABETES

Despite diabetes claiming first his toes, his feet, and then both legs above the knees, this book is inspirational. It is not an angry/bitter tale told from someone harping on missed opportunity. Kamala’s story includes a great balance of behind-the-scenes stories including plenty of humor, while illustrating the tough and interesting character that James Harris actually is. Overcoming racial obstacles in an industry that Jim Ross called, “a wrestling network of good old boys,” Harris broke the glass ceiling and thus paved the way of success for future African American wrestlers like Duane “The Rock” Johnson.
