Billy

"Once in a lifetime, there strides upon the stage someone who can truly be called a legend. Such a one is the inimitable, timeless genius who is Billy Connolly. His effortlessly wicked whimsy has entranced, entralled - and split the sides of - thousands upon thousnads of adoring audiences. And when he isn't doing that ... he's turning in award-winning performances on film and television. He's the man who needs no introduction, and yet he is the ultimate enigma. From a troubled and desperately poor childhood in the docklands of Glasgow, he is now the intimate of household names the world over. But who is the man behind the myth? If anyone knows Billy Connolly better than himself, it's his wife, Pamela Stephenson. In this extraordinary books, she combines the very personal with a frank objectivity that makes for a compellingly moving - yet hugely entertaining - biography. This is the real Billy Connolly." -- back cover.
