Author:Jon Gaunt

Undaunted

Millions know him as a loudmouth radio shock-jock and Sun columnist. Yet, in his life Jon Gaunt has had to overcome unimaginable hardship, solitude, bankruptcy and despair. His mother died suddenly when he was just twelve, his hard-drinking, womanising father abandoned him to suffer appalling treatment in a children's home. At twenty-eight, his business had a million pound turnover, but a stroke of fate caused catastrophe. Undaunted, Jon Gaunt has always fought back. Behind the outspoken media personality, this is the very human story of self-preservation, personal growth and forgiveness, told in Jon's inimitable forthright style.

Reviews

Jon has written a searingly honest book and he spares no one, least of all himself. It is a real insight into what makes him tick and how it is possible, through sheer guts and determination, to triumph over adversity.

—— Lorraine Kelly

Gaunty's the King of Talk Radio ... He's always fought for what he believes in and I respect him even more after reading this.

—— Ian Wright

Gaunty always tells it as it is ... extremely moving and very funny.

—— Eamonn Holmes

Blunt and self-deprecating, hope and loss lie at the heart of this funny and gripping memoir

—— News of the World

A lovely kind of magic trick in book form
