I fancy a few to download on the Kindle. Can anyone recommend any?
I am particuarly interested in old movie stars, rock stars, boxers and major historical figures, like Ceasar. I would really be interested in something about Henry Ford.
Can you help? |

I've got all 1st editions of Dirk Bogarde's and Winston Churchill....Bill Bryson's 'The Life and Times of the Thunderbolt Kid' is about him growing up in the USA in the 1950's "when smoking and nuclear fallout was healthy" lol.... |

Napoleon Bonaparte is the most biographied person in history, and perhaps the most interesting.
There's so many good (and indeed terrible) books about him, it's hard to choose but Frank Mclynn's fairly recent effort is well worth a read. |

"Jimmy Stewart - as he was a bomber pilot in WW2...
David Niven's 'The Moons a Balloon' series is excellent. As mentioned above."
Moons a balloon and Bring on the empty horses are excellent |

Is that it -bob geldof. He wrote it before band aid, in fact the book finishes with the begining of live aid, its a good read but it was before he became "proper" famous not just for fronting a pop band
Also Frank skinner is a good one |
