The definitive biography of Sir Ian McKellen from an acclaimed biographer
In 2001, Ian McKellen put on the robe and pointed hat of a wizard named Gandalf and won a place in the hearts of Tolkien fans worldwide. Though his role in the film adaptation of Lord of the Rings introduced him to a new audience, McKellen had a thriving career a lifetime before his visit to Middle Earth. He made his West End acting debut in 1964 in James Saunders's A Scent of Flowers, but it was in 1980 that he took Broadway by storm when he played Antonio Salieri in Peter Shaffer's Tony-Award-winning play Amadeus. He has starred in over four hundred plays and films and he is that rare character: a celebrity whose distinguished political and social service has transcended his international fame to reach beyond the stage and screen. The breadth of his career--professional, personal and political--has been truly staggering: Macbeth (opposite Judi Dench), Iago, King Lear, Chekhov's Sorin in The Seagull and Becket's tramp Estragon (opposite Patrick Stewart) in Waiting for Godot. Add to all this his tireless political activism in the cause of gay equality and you have a veritable phenomenon. Garry O'Connor's Ian McKellen: A Biography probes the heart of the actor, recreating his greatest stage roles and exploring his personal life. Ian McKellen will show readers what makes a great actor tick. His life story has been a constantly developing drama and this biography is the next chapter.

The Wrong Road Home is a story of treachery and deceit inspired by true events. It's the larger-than-life story of a surgeon who successfully practiced for 20 years--first in Ireland and then the United States--girded with nothing more than a Chicago School System GED and several counterfeit medical diplomas Impossible, is undoubtedly any reader's initial reaction--and understandably so--but the tale is based on a Miami Herald Sunday Edition front page exposE that was the talk of South Florida two decades ago. Oprah's producer pursued the imposter for weeks, as did Bill O'Reilly, then the host of Inside Edition.
The Wrong Road Home combines two cautionary tales. The first warns how a Faustian bargain once struck, allows for no turning back. Desmond Donahue's impossible dream of becoming a "doctor" was indeed realized over time, and a "doctor" he remained despite several close calls in the ensuing years. The second cautionary message details the terrible cost in human terms of a life lived alone; of having to forgo marriage and children; of never having a close friend; of having to keep everyone ever met at arm's length so the day would never arrive where he would inadvertently expose the awful truth about himself.
