THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER *REVISED AND UPDATED* 'I am the largest
sports promoter in the world. I promote 11 sports to a global
audience of billions of people every day of my life' __________ A
larger than life working class hero, Romford born and bred - always
ready with the perfect soundbite - Barry Hearn was famously
described as 'roguish but never a rogue'. Hearn is credited with
turning snooker into one of the biggest sports in Britain. He
essentially turned a sport in which competitors wear bowties into a
massive, globally televised event. Away from the table, his
promotions empire casts its net over a dozen sports - from
professional boxing to darts, fishing to ten-pin bowling - and his
career spans four decades. He also previously owned Leyton Orient
football club. Packed with hilarious anecdotes from the golden age
of snooker, and behind-the-scenes insight into boxing negotiations
and darts bust-ups, Hearn's book is a joy to read from start to
finish. __________
