Bøker av Lawrence Ryan

Lawrence Ryan is Australia's very own Evel Knievel. Legend: A Childhood Dream is Lawrence's lively autobiography which traces his progress from outback Junee (NSW) to this country's number one stuntman. As he writes: "Was there always an inner stuntman lurking in my genes? I was three when I told my dad I wanted to be a stuntman. Teacher, police officer, truck driver - these seemed okay occupations for other kids to aspire to but I knew they were tame compared to my dream." TV personality Grant Denyer remarks in his foreword: "He's part superhero, part gentlemen, part dreamer, partly psychotic. But, far more importantly, he's always entertaining." Legend is indeed an entertaining read and generously illustrated with photographic evidence of Lawrence's astounding stunts.
