Been very big on reading biographies lately. Just finishing up George Carlin's. I've always wanted to read a Bronson bio and I came across the latest to be released "Menacing Face Worth Millions: A Life of Charles Bronson."
Has anyone read it by any chance? All the other Bronson books were written in the late 70s, early 80s. This one seems to have everything.

All the other Bronson books were written in the late 70s, early 80s. This one seems to have everything. I thought I had already created a thread on this book, but it looks like I forgot. Thought I'd written a review and everything. Oh well - get this book! It's the best book on Bronson I've ever read. I can't believe there's not a bigger market for it, it's currently only available as a print-on-demand book for whatever reason. This book deserves much more attention, it's filled with information, even leading up to his death. A lot of the stuff you already know about, and some of it is taken almost straight from magazine articles, but it's a great read nonetheless, very comprehensive. I've read it once but know I'll read it again some day. |

Thanks a lot for all the info, Mean Little Asskicker. I have to order this. Just needed a true Bronson fan's stamp of approval before buy it. Does it have interesting tibits and such? I notice Harriet Bronson left a good review of it on Amazon.

She did? I had no idea! Will check that out right now.
With tidbits, do you mean rumors and such?

Like what we have on this board...interesting trivia and stories on Bronson from people who worked with him. Stuff on his work out routine and dynamic tension. Stuff like that

Not a lot of stuff on his work out routines, unfortunately, but plenty of stories from other people, often quoted from books they've written themselves.
