Format:Paperback
I was recomended this book by a mate at work & having read it from cover to cover its probably the worst book I have ever read, poorly written with no real story to tell, sorry mr gaunt (I had never heard of the bloke before getting the book) A VERY POOR EFFORT.

Format:Paperback
The main theme of this book is a phoney persona and a fabricated working class life.
Gaunt is full of self-pity and wants us to feel sorry for his so-called hard upbringing and cheer his so-called rise to the top.
True he writes a column for the best newspaper in the world but he is no Richard Littlejohn, Kelvin McKenzie or Garry Bushell.
He also presents a show on Talksport but he is no James Whale, Nick Ferrari or Steve Allen...and his TV appearances are pure phone panto.
Gaunt is just a poor writer he got lucky and this book is not a genuine story of a working class hero.

Just what you would expect from a man who has made a career of spouting out half informed biggoted opinions.
The only time this book brought a smile to my face was when reading the part when he describes loosing his virginity. The awkward style of writing makes it one of the most unintentionaly hillarious things i have ever read. What a repressed man.
Don't buy this book.

Guant is not worth reading
A very egocentric biography that was poor reading. Parts were of interest but it lacked any real depth. Gaunt used the book to big himself up and slag off people. Read more

GREAT BOOK, GREAT SHOW, TOP COLUMN!!
Gaunty is a great figure in today's society, having the balls to say exactly what the majority of people are thinking. He challenges things head on, that others wouldn't dare! Read more
