Description

Nigel Andrews (au). Who is Arnold Schwarzenegger? A super-achiever who parlayed a steroid-enhanced bodybuilding career into the life of a global celebrity -- the highest-paid actor in Hollywood, consort of a Kennedy & supreme self-publicist? Or a new-millennial Teutonic terminator, sent from Austria to America to kick Democratic butt? Here is the story of Arnold’s rise from a Germanic upbringing in Austria to the world of bodybuilding, movie aspirations & carefully crafted metamorphosis from muscle-bound star to political powerhouse. Follows the twists & turns of his strange career, all the way up through the meticulously stage-managed but scandal-assailed campaign leading to the dramatic recall election & his eventual triumph as Governor of California.
