ELMA: The Conqueror of Giants

The Oranatang: The True Story of the Five-Foot Woman Who Defeated Giants.

The most dangerous person in any room is the one you overlook. In the quiet, post-war American landscape of the mid-20th century, that person was Selma Christopher-a wife, a mother, and a lethal enigma.

Barely five feet tall, Selma's demeanor hid a terrifying, explosive past forged in the desperation of the Great Depression. This is the true, untold memoir of her short, brutal career in the circus ring where she was known only as "The Oranatang."

A product of a rugged German resolve, Selma trained under the guidance of the oddest, most effective combat instructor she would ever know: Roo, the Red Kangaroo.

From Roo, she learned the devastating principle of focused energy transfer, leading her to invent her signature, career-defining move: The Leveraged Snap. This precise, corkscrew blow could bypass a man's brute force, allowing the diminutive Selma to drop men who stood nearly seven feet tall and weighed over three hundred pounds. She left 15 heavyweights motionless on the canvas in just 18 months.

But Selma's battles were not over when the circus tent came down. This memoir is a chronicle of a mother whose power was always coiled, waiting for the ultimate defense of her family. Her life became a series of terrifying domestic confrontations: from defending her baby against a brutal, abusive husband to staring down a butcher knife on a San Antonio sidewalk, armed with nothing but the half-brick she kept hidden in her purse.

Selma: The Conqueror of Giants is the unconquerable legacy of a woman who proved that true power is not found in bulk, but in the unwavering will to protect what you love, through speed, leverage, and strategic precision.
