Customer Reviews

Fascinating character, but tabloid writing a let down.
I would consider myself a fan of Gordon Ramsey, I think his theories on management and what it takes to be a success could be a lesson to all. Also he has led what seems like a fascinating life, rising up from a rough part of Glasgow, dealing with the issues of a broken family and a promising football career ruined by injury. Sadly this book is written in little better than tabloid tidbits for those with a very short attention span. His childhood and motivations that led him to being a world class chef are glossed over and given about 30 pages. His troubled relationship with his father and its impact is mentioned several times in the book but never really elaborated on sufficiently. His early years as a chef are dealt with in about 15 pages and his years in Paris are given even less coverage despite Gordon's belief that they were absolutely central to him becoming the chef he is today. The author seems more interested in making constant references to Gordon's notorious foul mouth and his relationship with the tabloid press. What a shame there are so many more interesting facets to his life that could have been explored here.

Biography of Gordon Ramsay
I couldn't put the book down! Reading about the real Gordon Ramsay, I was very much impressed. Mr. Ramsay is a very intelligent and wonderful person, and I have very much respect for him

its a rip off
This book is more like a quick money making scam by someone cashing in on the surge of poker book sales. He offers absolutely nothing of benefit at all. There is page after page of filler. I honestly felt like a sucker after reading this book. The author is a business man and he is the only person that benefits from his book.
Buy harrington on hold'em - by far the best of all the books that I've read.
