I don't think there are any comprehensive books on it yet. The 'Rise and Fall of ECW' DVD is pretty damn good, even if the WWE yes-men tend to slant things a bit out of whack. That's about the closest to an all-encompassing full story of ECW.

Funk's book is damn good, but as you'd suspect, it's about Funk and not the promotion as a whole.

There is a book called 'The Rise and Fall of ECW' With interviews from Tazz, Heyman, Dudleys, etc. Bascally the same jist of the dvd, but in book form. Probably more detailed.

I have that DVD.. I realize Funk's book wasn't an "ECW" book per say, but like "Have a Nice Day" I assumed it would have some about it..

I'm def gonna get that Rise and Fall book..

There was also one called Hardcore History. It had quotes from wrestlers who didn't work with the WWE on their version. http://www.amazon.ca/Hardcore-History-Extremely-Unauthorised-Story/dp/1596702257/ref=pd_bbs_1/701-5734807-2307539?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1193062757&sr=8-1

They need to know where to sign the unemployment checks somehow.

This is the one anyone wanting a look at ECW needs to read. It is way too Anti WWE, but it at least is the truth.
