This honest and absorbing autobiography gives a fascinating, revealing, no-holds-barred account of the life of the man behind Kendo Nagasaki's mask, Peter Thornley, from his challenging origins and early life, to his natural sporting ability which was honed in judo and Zen, to training in the world's toughest Catch Wrestling gym, to Kendo's debut and becoming an icon of professional wrestling of the 1970s which was watched by millions. This book lifts the lid on his personal life, the world of wrestling behind the cameras, his success with different businesses, and his current endeavours with the Lee Rigby Foundation - indeed, all the proceeds from this book will be donated to the Foundation to support its work - it's a must-read!

A football rivalry like no other in the English game, when Liverpool take on Manchester United it is the biggest match of the season according to those in the know, including Steven Gerrard and Sir Alex Ferguson. This book explores the relationship between these English heavyweights the managers, the players, the fans, the owners and the two cities. Of course the competition between the two has often descended into acrimony and mutual hostility. However, both clubs also share a great deal in terms of footballing success, global appeal and of course tragedy so that they are and remain reluctant redfellows.
