Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. "Wild Boy is a collection of true tales from the greatest revolutionary the fitness industry has ever known: Mr. John Du Cane. Some of the stories contained within may shock you, others will warm your heart. Some will make you blush, while a great many will make you laugh out loud. One thing is for sure: once you pick up Wild Boy, you won't be able to put it down! As you would expect from a man who has published scores of books and hundreds of articles, Du Cane's mastery of language and imagery is unparalleled. The style lures you in and doesn't let go. Wild Boy is fantastic story telling at its best, part prose, part poetry. It reminds me of the early work of Charles Bukowski or Henry Miller in its vividness, beauty and boldness. In any event, Wild Boy is the documentation of a life well lived, including multiple eras and settings, as well as some of the most interesting characters you've ever encountered on the printed page. I loved it!" -DANNY KAVADLO, author of Strength Rules From the Kalahari desert, to the jungles of Sierra Leone, to Swinging Sixties London to France, to India and beyond, Dragon Door publisher John Du Cane has led a Forrest Gump-like life of encounters with the great, the bizarre, the dangerous and the downright depraved. With a laconic, visceral, image-laden style reminiscent of Bob Dylan's cryptic lyrics, Du Cane delivers a set of compelling tales that exude a raw passion, a wry sense of humor and some penetrating spiritual insights. Like a Picasso portrait from his Cubist period, these are bits and pieces that put together make up a face. In this case, the multi-faceted face of a complex visionary and innovator who changed the landscape of modern fitness. What did Mick Jagger's wife, Bianca, give John for the first time in his life? How and where did he meet Sharon Tate, shortly before she was murdered by the Charlie Manson gang? Why was John arrested and detained in the #1 prison for the criminally insane? What decided John to eat his father? What happened when Patti Smith's friend Robert Mapplethorpe invited john to come see his artwork? What Tantric Sex Goddess spiked his tea with LSD? How did he survive being raped by a beatnik? What did Andy Warhol superstar Jackie Curtiss do to John in Max's Kansas City? What did John's daughter do with Lou Reed? How it can really hurt to be double rear-ended. How John drove from Paris to Italy and back with no money for gas. Why John hates and fears all dogs. Who blew his brains out in John's house and why? Why did the Chinese Government detain John in isolation for one week? What did the Egyptian guide try to do to John on top of the Great Pyramid? What did John do when he discovered his car was on fire? What black magician filmmaker did he befriend for a while-with reservations cast aside? What weird assassin's weapon did John get from a tribal chief? Did John's dad really help sink the Bismarck? And did crocodiles really eat those little babies? How John nearly died from windsurfing in a Speedo. Why a riot broke out when John showed one of his films in France and why. And much, much more.

Hardcover. Condizione: VG. No Jacket. Ella Du Cane (illustratore). 1st. A co-operative effort by three produced this fine book with John Todd responsible for the text material, Ellan Du Cane the excellent colour art work and Florence Du Cane the notes for each of the colour plates. The author, from University College, Nottingham, had lived and travelled in Egypt for five years and was able to create a comprehensive and wide-ranging overview of the country and its people, its rituals, ruins, famous river and ancient relics as in the early years of the 1900s. Touching, in the preface, on his historical content Todd said this was necessarily incomplete, and that: "Only in the case of mediaeval (which in Egypt means modern) history of the country is it possible, or desirable, to deal with shorter units of time than centuries or dynasties." Nevertheless, Todd covered the historical apects of Egypt with the same broad scope that is applied to almost every other aspect of Egypt's past, its contemporary affairs, development and future prospecrs. A scarce book. First edition from Adam and Charles Black of 1913, 282 pages including three appendices and index. 62 plates with evocative colour paintings by Ella Du Cane include frontis. Each plate is faced by a protective tissue sheet on which, facing the plate, is a description of the illustration by Florence Du Cane.

Few short tears at edges and some creasing to Cairo map, rear map little used. One plate (page 220) slightly prodruding at vertical edge as closed but firmly attached in text block, another plate (page 84) a trifle loose and misaligned.
