Robbie Williams

Robbie Williams har sålt närmare 80 miljoner skivor världen över. Elva av hans tolv album har nått förstaplatsen på topplistorna i hemlandet och han är den bäst säljande artisten i Storbritannien någonsin. Han har mottagit 18 Brit Awards (fler än någon annan) och en lång rad internationella priser. I hemstaden Stoke-on-Trent kan turister vandra i hans fotspår på guidade turer, och han har fått flera gator uppkallade efter sig. Men det har funnits en baksida till all framgång. Williams har haft problem med hälsan och slagits mot depression, övervikt, dålig självkänsla, alkoholism och missbruk av droger hela sitt liv. Han har också lidit av kronisk trötthet till följd av en hormonrubbning i många år. En intim, rolig och ärlig berättelse om ögonblicken bakom musiken, om sanningen bakom rubrikerna och om den fascinerande och komplexe mannen bakom underhållaren. Det här är Robbie Williams som du aldrig sett honom förut. Chris Heath har skrivit denna officiella biografi i samarbete med Williams. Heath är en välrenommerad musikjournalist som bland annat skrivit för Smash Hits, Rolling Stone, The Telegraph och Sunday Times. Han har tidigare skrivit flera böcker om Pet Shop Boys.

To Cap It All is the enthralling life story of legendary Port Vale manager John Rudge, providing special behind-the-scenes insight into the ups and downs of six decades of professional football, from the depths of the Division Four re-election zone to the Premier League and Europe. Rudge managed the Valiants for a record 19 years, developing players like Robbie Earle, Mark Bright and Ian Taylor. As Vale slayed giants such as Spurs, Southampton and Everton, Rudge became a style icon famous for his flat cap. He moved to city rivals Stoke in 1999 to become director of football and oversaw the club's revival to reach the Premier League and their first ever FA Cup final. But it wasn't all plain sailing. John describes his volatile relationship with Vale chairman Bill Bell and speaks out about Stoke's Icelandic owners and manager Johan Boskamp, who had Rudge put on garden leave. This hilarious memoir also reveals why a second-hand Lada changed John's life, how he once signed a drag artist and why he ended up in Denis Law's bed!
