Hell in boots : clawing my way through nine lives / by Paige(Wrestler),author.;
"An eye-opening memoir of family drama, stardom, despair, and resilience from the wildly popular wrestling superstar. Saraya-Jade Bevis, formerly WWE's Paige, is one of the biggest names in the wrestling world. She is the youngest two-time WWE Divas Champion and was inaugural NXT's Women Champion. She ranked first in Pro Wrestling Illustrated's Female 50 and was named Diva of the Year by Rolling Stone in 2014. She was also the subject of the critically and commercially successful 2019 film Fighting with My Family, produced by Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson and starring Florence Pugh. But before ascending to wrestling superstardom, she was just Saraya. Hell in Boots is Saraya's real, uncensored, story. From her early days in her famous (and chaotic) wrestling family, to leaving home at fifteen, to forging her own path in professional wrestling, Saraya has been through hell and back. As she fought to make it in the incredibly competitive-and at times sexist-wrestling world, she faced incredible highs and devastating lows. Saraya recounts years of struggling with substance abuse, clawing back her pride after an ex's sex tape leaked, adjusting to stardom in the WWE, healing from a nearly career-ending injury, a making triumphant return to wrestling as AEW Women's World Champion. Through it all, Saraya tells her whole truth in a way she never has before"--

Bring it on home : Peter Grant, Led Zeppelin, and beyond --the story of rock's greatest manager / by Blake, Mark,1965-author.(CARDINAL)479195;
Includes bibliographical references (pages 277-278) and index.The Battle of Streatham Common -- Soup for Christmas -- The diving horse -- The kicking trick -- On the bus or under the bus -- Crackpots in Jamaica -- The worst job I ever had -- Have you been a naughty boy? -- Doctor Larry's bag -- A big hell of a man -- Crocodiles in the moat -- Looking good and dangerous."Peter Grant is the most famous music manager of all time. Often acknowledged as the "fifth member of Led Zeppelin," Grant's story has appeared in fragments across countless Zeppelin biographies, but none has explored who this brilliant and intuitive manager yet flawed and sometimes dangerous man truly was. No one has successfully captured the scope of his personality or his long-lasting impact on the music business. Acclaimed author and journalist Mark Blake seeks to rectify that. Bring It On Home is the first book to tell the complete uncensored story of this industry giant. With support from Grant's family interviews with Led Zeppelin's surviving band members, and access to Grant's extensive archive and scores of unpublished material, including his never-before-published final interview, Blake sheds new light on the history of Led Zeppelin and on the wider story of rock music in the 1960s and '70s. Full of new insights into Grant's early life as an actor, wrestler, and road manager for rock 'n' roll pioneers Chuck Berry and Little Richard; the formation of Led Zeppelin; his seclusion following the demise of the band; and his recovery from substance abuse, Bring It On Home reveals a man who, after the extraordinary highs and lows of a career in rock 'n' roll, found peace and happiness in a more ordinary life. It is a celebration, a cautionary tale, and a compelling human drama."--Jacket.
