Anyone interested in snooker, let alone Jimmy White, should read this book. It is pacy, well-written, dark in sections but also fun to read. Some may find some of White's escapades during tournaments bemusing at best but he admits he would have done it no other way while looking back. His drinking and drug problems undoubtedly affected his marital relations. It tells a lot about the hidden world of snooker throughout the 1980s and the early 1990s. ( )
