To his movie going fans, Mel Gibson is a superstar who possesses the endearing qualities that make him both a ladies' man & a man's man. And the personas he assumes on the silver screen--most notably Martin Riggs from the blockbuster trilogy Lethal Weapon--have served to reinforce the public's fascination with him. Reckless, rugged, sensitive, approachable & dangerously handsome summarize only a few of the characteristics that have made Mel Gibson a "lethal hero" as coined by Australian author Roland Perry in his latest book LETHAL HERO: THE MEL GIBSON BIOGRAPHY. In this unauthorized account, Perry traces Gibson's life from his humble beginnings as the sixth of eleven children raised in Peekskill, New York, to the family's journey back to their genealogical roots in Sydney, Australia where Gibson's rise to stardom began. Like many of the startling accounts in this book, Gibson's life ambition was not to become an actor. However, the young Aussie's irreverent antics such as falling down stairs just to see people's reaction & lying down & playing dead in the middle of a thoroughfare were, for an actor, excellent training material. In this 256-page hardback, Perry documents Gibson's trials, tribulations & exaltations & uncovers such fascinating details.
