• See a fascinating picture unfold in your mind
• Read Gordon's secret tragedies
• Find yourself in fits of laughter

A wonderful biography of the undisputed king of celebrity chefs.

Neil Simpson paints a fascinating picture of the man in full, and uncovers the secret tragedies that turned Gordon Ramsay into one of the most driven, successful and angry men in Britain.

The book details: the violent, alcoholic, absent father who died just days after the pair had been reconciled as adults; the best-friend and protege whose bizarre suicide came hours after the two had shared a final meal; the decade-long battle to save his younger brother from heroin addiction and crime; and, the real reason why Gordon wasn't at the birth of any of his four children - and has never changed a nappy in his life.

Sometimes hilarious and frequently heart-breaking, Gordon Ramsay's life story runs from the council estates of Glasgow and the picture post-card countryside of Stratford-upon-Avon to some of the finest and most expensive restaurants in the world.

This is an incredible, inspiring story.

This is one of the best biographies I have ever read. It tells of his past amd present and touches every aspect of his life. It tells of his struggles and his accomplishments. I could not put it down, I was literally reading it during class. This is a must read book if you can handle bad language and if you like cooking. This book should win an award.

As a fan of Gordon Ramsay, waiting for this book was well worth it.
Neil Simpson has done a wonderful job of taking the reader through the life and major times of Gordon Ramsay. Like most readers will find, it is hard to put this book down [just like Gordon's book 'Roasting in Hell's Kitchen', also and excellent read]. This book does not disappoint.

No new knowledge to be found here. Several places in the book there are errors, e.g. did you know that QTo vs QTo is 67% percent to win? Pages and pages of example hands with percentage to win calculations that I wouldn't trust anyway. Move along, nothing to see here. Went through whole book in 30 minutes, could have done that at borders for free.

The book was a good read, even with all the "F" words in it.
Was very interested in reading about the man and how he got where he is.
Very good buy.

This book might be the most useless book I have ever read on poker. It offers nothing in terms of strategy or content that isn't available in just about any standard poker book on the market. The "enlightening" real world examples of internet pros also offered nothing, such as successful strategies they might use, etc.

Save your time and money and invest in a book like Killer Poker Online instead. This book was so bad I actually threw it out after reading it, which is something I never do.

This book is more like a quick money making scam by someone cashing in on the surge of poker book sales. He offers absolutely nothing of benefit at all. There is page after page of filler. I honestly felt like a sucker after reading this book. The author is a business man and he is the only person that benefits from his book.
Buy harrington on hold'em - by far the best of all the books that I've read.
