True Myths: Life and Times of Arnold Schwarzenegger
London: Bloomsbury. Very Good/Very Good. 1995. Hardcover. 8vo - over 7�" - 9�" tall 0-7475-2126-3 Is Arnold Schwarzenegger a bizarre construct of the PR industry or is he the product of late-century Aryan supremacism on a path which will eventually lead him to the White House What makes him a freak achiever is not just his origin - the only sportsman ever to become a Hollywood superstar let alone the only Austrian - but his ability to be several pairs of complete opposites: outlaw and establishment warrior; patrician and peasant; untried android and grizzled human veteran; hero and villain. He is universally popular and in a career spanning cops robbers hit man special agents macho kindergarten teachers and over-sized twin brother Arnold has become the biggest hero in the world by playing the biggest hero in the world - all of this was written before he became Governor of California! .
