    Powerlifting is a strength sport that focuses on three core lifts: the squat, bench press, and deadlift. These exercises form the foundation of powerlifting and test an athlete's maximal strength in a single, controlled repetition. Unlike bodybuilding, which emphasizes aesthetics, powerlifting prioritizes pure strength and the ability to lift as much weight as possible in each of the three lifts. 
    The origins of powerlifting date back to the mid-20th century, evolving from earlier strength competitions and "odd lift" contests. It was officially recognized as a sport in the 1970s, with the establishment of the International Powerlifting Federation (IPF). Over the decades, powerlifting has grown significantly, attracting athletes from various backgrounds who are united by their pursuit of raw power. 
    Powerlifting offers a range of benefits that extend beyond the competition platform. It is an excellent way to build muscle mass, improve bone density, and enhance overall physical resilience. The structured nature of powerlifting training fosters discipline and goal-setting, while the supportive community surrounding the sport often inspires camaraderie and mutual encouragement.

    The Gas and Flame Men is the first full account of Major League ballplayers who served in the Chemical Warfare Service during World War I. Four players, two club executives, and a manager served in the small and hastily formed branch, six of them as gas officers. Remarkably, five of the seven—Christy Mathewson, Branch Rickey, Ty Cobb, George Sisler, and Eppa "Jeptha" Rixey—are now enshrined in the National Baseball Hall of Fame at Cooperstown, New York. The son of a sixth Hall of Famer, player and manager Ned Hanlon, was a young officer killed in action in France with the First Gas Regiment. Prominent chemical soldiers also included veteran Major League catcher and future manager George "Gabby" Street and Boston Braves president and former Harvard football coach Percy D. Haughton. 
     
     
     
    The Gas and Flame Men explores how these famous baseball men, along with an eclectic mix of polo players, collegiate baseball and football stars, professors, architects, and prominent social figures all came together in the Chemical Warfare Service. Jim Leeke examines their service and its long-term effects on their physical and mental health—and on Major League Baseball and the world of sports. The Gas and Flame Men also addresses historical inaccuracies and misperceptions surrounding Christy Mathewson's early death from tuberculosis, long attributed to wartime gas exposure.
