AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'With his reputation in tatters Olympic Gold Medalist swimmer and internationally recognised Sporting Commentator Neil Brooks speaks out in this explosive tell all autobiography. In The Deep End is the inside story in his own words of his early years growing up in suburban Australia, from Olympic and Commonwealth champion, to the depths of despair and depression during his darkest hours and embattled business life. Affectionately known as Brooksy, we hear first hand the events that triggered his fall from grace in the eyes of a nation and his steely and desperate determination to reclaim his tarnished reputation and leave the legacy he had planned for his family. This fun loving larrikin shares his story of achievement, sacrifice, loss, love, friendship, loyalty and the ultimate betrayal.' (Publisher's blurb)
