Book excerpt: This honest and absorbing autobiography gives a fascinating, revealing, no-holds-barred account of the life of the man behind Kendo Nagasaki's mask, Peter Thornley, from his challenging origins and early life, to his natural sporting ability which was honed in judo and Zen, to training in the world's toughest Catch Wrestling gym, to Kendo's debut and becoming an icon of professional wrestling of the 1970s which was watched by millions. This book lifts the lid on his personal life, the world of wrestling behind the cameras, his success with different businesses, and his current endeavours with the Lee Rigby Foundation - indeed, all the proceeds from this book will be donated to the Foundation to support its work - it's a must-read!
