The 85% Man and Lessons from Lucille is Bob Mack Peak's
well-crafted, uplifting, heart-felt romantic epic-a lighthearted
look at differences between men and women. Peak validates the open
proposition "Everything my mother told me about women is true...
and I can prove it." The book's flowing narrative offers the reader
a delightful journey toward discovering life's truest
reward-unconditional love. The 85% Man and Lessons from Lucille
finds a parallel and rampart through the life of the author's
parents, a part of The Greatest Generation. Raised during the
hardships of the Great Depression, they built a terrific life with
beloved children, yet suffered terrible losses toward the end of
their lives. Readers who adore the films Terms of Endearment or The
Help, will fall in love with Peak's book. Peak offers guidelines
rather than rules to help women, men, and couples to "love long and
prosper." The 85% Man is uniquely different from similar books of
the relationship, self-help and romantic genres written by a
plethora of PhD's and various authors. Peak draws upon personalized
experiences supported by the timeless, sage advice of the author's
mother, Lucille. This book will help readers achieve a useful
perspective on what's genuine in life and love. Displaying his gift
for honestly communicating deeply moving experiences, Peak
carefully navigates the ups and downs of his relationships. Peak
relates his ex-wives to "experimental flights," since his birthday
coincides with Chuck Yeager breaking the sound barrier in the X-1
test plane on October 14th. The author's "EXs" were not dissimilar
to unstable test planes that often crash. Some of his "relationship
crashes" left no survivors, while others smashups provided the
genesis of a phoenix-like rebirth. Perhaps best of all, the book
references a link to the website www.85PercentMan.com featuring a
section where visitors can calculate how their man scores, and
discover WWLS (What Would Lucille Say).

Those were the days, my friends ... so grab a hot dog and an egg
cream, and travel back in time to learn how Babe Ruth won a farting
contest, how the first chest protector almost killed Wilbert
Robinson, how Leo Durocher rescued the Dodgers from a flaming train
wreck, how Jackie Robinson's sore arm landed him in Brooklyn, why
the spitball was good for baseball, why Burt Shotton would not wear
a uniform, who stole the Kaiser's ashtray, and how the Bums from
Flatbush snatched the National League pennant from the St. Louis
Cardinals on the last day of the 1949 baseball season...
