Trevor Brooking: Trevor Brooking
Autobiography

Trevor Brooking Autobiography

As one of Australia's most celebrated athletes, Michael Klim's impact extends far beyond the pool. Klim's journey to greatness began behind the Iron Curtain, in communist-era Poland. His family made a bid for freedom in the 1980s and immigrated to Australia, where swimming became his passport into a new culture and eventually led him to become one of his adopted country's great sporting heroes. His crowning moment came at the 2000 Sydney Olympics, where he captured the hearts of millions with his gold medal performances and world record-breaking swims. But being a champion athlete does not come without personal challenges. Beyond his achievements in the pool, Klim's life has been equally compelling. Through transitions in the business world, family life and major health trials, his natural buoyancy kept him afloat - until he faced a crisis that forced him to reassess his life and fight for his future. From the heights of Olympic glory to the depths of personal adversity, KLIM is a testament to the power of passion, perseverance and the unsinkable human spirit. 'An inspiring and sometimes shocking insight into the man behind the medals.' IAN THORPE 'Michael Klim's finest moment isn't Olympic glory - it's the courage he summoned to share himself so honestly in this sports memoir for the ages.' RICH ROLL

KLIM, the moving autobiography from Michael Klim, delves into the life of the legendary swimmer, exploring his triumphs, challenges and extraordinary resilience in and beyond the swimming lanes. As one of Australia's most celebrated athletes, Michael Klim's impact extends far beyond the pool. Klim's journey to greatness began with his early years in Poland before his family immigrated to Australia. From a young age, Klim displayed an extraordinary talent for swimming, honing his skills through rigorous training and competition. He burst onto the international scene in the late 1990s, becoming a dominant force in butterfly and freestyle events. His crowning moment came at the 2000 Sydney Olympics, where he captured the hearts of millions with his gold medal performances and world record-breaking swims. Klim's success continued on the world stage, earning numerous medals at World Championships and Commonwealth Games, solidifying his status as one of the greatest swimmers of his generation. Beyond his athletic achievements, Klim's personal life has been equally compelling. His transition to entrepreneurship and family life provides insight into the challenges and rewards of life beyond the pool. &nbsp;In recent years, he has faced significant health struggles, including battles with injury and a life-altering autoimmune disorder. Yet, through determination and perseverance, Klim has emerged stronger, embracing his experiences as opportunities for growth and self-discovery. KLIM&nbsp;offers readers an eye-opening account of Michael Klim's extraordinary life, highlighting the enduring legacy of a true sporting icon. From the heights of Olympic glory to the depths of personal adversity, Klim's story serves as a testament to the power of perseverance, passion, and the human spirit.

The first detailed and comprehensively researched biography of the heir apparent to the Djokovic-Nadal-Federer era.

The first detailed and comprehensively researched biography of the heir apparent to the Djokovic-Nadal-Federer era. A deeply researched biography of the new (smiley) face of tennis. A global star who has achieved more than Novak Djokovic, Rafael Nadal and Roger Federer did by this stage of their careers. At just 19 years old, Carlos Alcaraz won the US Open and became the youngest ever men's world number one. At only 21, he already had four Grand Slam titles. For Alcaraz, everything - from his charm to his star power to his tennis mojo - starts with a smile. But there is a more complex character behind the smile. One who grew up in modest circumstances in a small village in Murcia in southern Spain. A man with strong family traditions who has a tattoo of his grandfather's favorite saying - 'cabeza, corazon y cojones' (brain, heart and balls) - inked on his left wrist. Mark Hodgkinson talks to those who know Alcaraz best - including his coaches, old teachers and competitors - to provide a fascinating insight into a showman with ambitions of becoming the GOAT, the greatest of all time.

Carlos Alcaraz: Behind the smile

'Everyone with new ideas is thought mad until they work' Marcelo Bielsa Marcelo Bielsa is one of the great enigmas of world football. To Pep Guardiola, he is the finest mind in the game, a fabulously innovative and obsessive coach who transformed Leeds United, Marseille and Athletic Bilbao after winning three league titles in his native Argentina. Yet Bielsa is a manager who has won very much less than his reputation suggests. He lasted two days at Lazio and led Argentina to their greatest footballing disaster. Featuring interviews from across South America, Europe and Yorkshire, The Quality of Madness is a comprehensive and compelling biography tracing Bielsa's story from growing up as a member of one of Argentina's most remarkable families to his revival of Leeds and his comeback with Uruguay at the Copa América. Bielsa has long been known as 'El Loco' - 'The Madman' - and yet, as Tim Rich's revelatory study shows, there is mercurial method and audacious logic to the madness.

He also made 20 appearances for Scotland and played in the 1990 World Cup Finals. The highlight of Murdo's coaching career came as Assistant Coach at Celtic under Wim Jansen when, in the 1997-98 season, they won the league and League Cup double, and stopped arch-rivals Rangers' bid to win ten league titles in a row for the first time.

My Autobiography

Murdo! Murdo!

Steve Williams, arguably the greatest caddie in golf history, teams up with renowned golf journalist Evin Priest to give his definitive account of his 12-year partnership with the legendary Tiger Woods, sharing personal, never-before-told moments of their friendship on and off the course. When Tiger Woods went on an extraordinary majors run between 1999 and 2008, one man stood at his side: his caddie Steve Williams. Together Steve and Tiger dominated the PGA Tour and won an astonishing 13 major championships, their sights set on breaking Jack Nicklaus's record 18 majors. Before they could overtake Nicklaus, however, their partnership ended abruptly, and a 12-year period without talking began. Years later, the two reconnected. Steve, with PGA Tour journalist Evin Priest, reflects fondly on his years as Tiger's caddie and their relentless pursuit of greatness. He revisits all their best moments, from Tiger's iconic shot on the 16th hole at the 2005 Masters to the famed Tiger Slam of 2000 and 2001, to his against-the-odds victory on a broken leg at the 2008 US Open. Steve goes behind the scenes of their on-course success and shows their friendship off the course, like Tiger caddying for Steve on his wedding day and Tiger giving a heartfelt best man speech. Steve also shares fascinating, never-before-seen photos and ephemera. Together We Roared&nbsp;offers an inside look at what it is like to ride alongside greatness and is a heartfelt ode to the friendship that produced one of the winningest duos in golf history.

(Final) Dispatches from the Road

The Accidental Tour-Ist

The story of my life would be a bloody sight shorter if the man who tried to murder me outside the Broadway Theatre in Barking on a winter's evening in 1989 had succeeded. He nearly did. Frank Warren has spent forty years working with boxing's most colourful and controversial characters. In his long-awaited autobiography, he reflects on the battles he had to win to reach the top and remain there, not least the battle to stay alive after he was shot at point-blank range in an attempted assassination in 1989. In Frank and Fearless, Warren pulls no punches, taking us behind the scenes into a world of blood and sweat, and intense relationships that all too often end in tears. Under Warren's careful stewardship, Frank Bruno, Naseem Hamed, Joe Calzaghe, Ricky Hatton, Amir Khan and Tyson Fury all became world champions. So did Terry Marsh, the man who was later accused, and cleared, of trying to murder him. Along the way, Warren has been assaulted in a hotel room by the formidable Mike Tyson and gone toe to toe in a court room with his erstwhile partner, the flamboyant Don King. However, boxing is only part of the story that begins on a council estate in 1950s North London, where Warren first learnt how to stand up to bullies. That was how he overcame and outwitted the powerful cartel that controlled British boxing and tried to stop his career before it started, and it is why he is still around to reflect on his remarkable life. With cameo appearances from Frank Sinatra, Luciano Pavarotti, Pink Floyd and the Philadelphia mafia, Frank and Fearless is the unflinchingly candid and hard-hitting memoir of Britain's most famous and influential boxing promoter.

A Life in Boxing

Frank and Fearless

'Entertaining, quirky and an enjoyable read' - Phil Liggett MBE

'A genuine one-off with a ready wit and a killer anecdote to hand at all times' - Rouleur

'Entertaining... Carlton shows no sign of running out of amusing anecdotes... A worthy sequel that will give his fans more of what they like' - Road.cc

Legendary commentator Carlton Kirby's professional cycling race year takes us from the magnificent Grand Tours and iconic Spring Classics to the sport's more bizarre corners with plenty of his inimitable and irreverent diversions en route.

A true cycling nut would be hard pushed to even name all 36 races on the UCI World Tour, but there is much more to professional racing than national tours and monuments. It's a year-long global schedule venturing as far afield as Burkina Faso and Gabon. So why not take some of these roads less travelled in the company of Carlton Kirby, a real commentary nomad, cycling expert and hilarious raconteur.

Carlton's year follows the cycling seasons through the Spring Classics to the Grand Tours and on to the World Championships and Six Day track racing. In between he's visiting the lesser known, bizarre and challenging races such as Tour de Langkawi, Flanders' Scheldeprijs, The Red Hook Crit in New Jersey and UK's National Hill Climb Championships.
 
Along the way we hear great cycling stories from the past as well as how he appeared in a blockbuster action movie, bought an octopus in an auction, got lost in a storm on a sacred Catalonian mountain and faced near death in a biscuit factory. And that's just some of the anecdotes that don't involve Sean Kelly.

The Cycling Year According to Carlton Kirby

Sticky Bottle

As I got out of the Bentley I heard a loud bang. At first I thought it was a car backfiring, but then I saw a man standing about 10 feet away from me, pointing a gun. Then there was another bang, and by now I thought it was a joke. The guy didn't say anything, but I could see that he was shaking like a leaf, obviously a bag of nerves. It all happened very quickly. There were two more bangs, and whereas the first couple of shots had missed me, the next one didn't. I felt a sudden, excruciating pain in my left side. My jacket sleeve was already sticky with blood, and there was a crimson stain rapidly spreading across the green tweed Armani waistcoat I was wearing. What can I say, it was the 1980s.

The story of legendary Hall of Fame boxing promoter and manager Frank Warren . . . and of all the greats he has worked with, from Bruno, to Benn, to Tyson.
