He arrived in California with $20 in his pocket; now he's governer of the state. But who is Arnold Schwarzenegger? A superachiever, rising from a steroid-enhanced bodybuilder into a global star and the highest paid actor in Hollywood? Or a Teutonic terminator, sent from Austria to America to kick Democratic butt?
Nigel Andrews unearths Arnold's riveting story from his strict Germanic upbringing, through the worlds of bodybuilding and movies, on to his metamorphosis from muscle-bound star to political powerhouse. Andrews illuminates the myth-making power of Arnold's ambitions and follows his strange career right up to the stage-managed, but scandal-assailed campaign, the dramatic recall election and his eventual triumph.
