The world knows Sean Connery as the actor
who first breathed life into the legendary
JAMES BOND on screen.He became idolised by
men and women alike,the ultimate symbol of success.But what of the very private man behind the public image? A man so private that both his marriages were secret ceremonies? Born to grinding toil in an Edinburgh tenement with a wardrobe drawer for a cot,Sean Connery was out working on the city streets when he was 9 years old,delivering milk seven days a week.To acquire money he hired himself out as a driver to any one with a horse and cart. Invalided out of the Royal Navy with a duodenal ulcer he became a coffin-polisher,a cement mixer,a steelworker,a life-guard,a printer's assistant and a nude model.His first acting job was a chorus boy in South Pacific - and from then on he knew where he was going.This first ever book about Sean Connery's life is told here as he lived it: fast-paced, angry in parts,but laced with humour and anecdote.
