Undaunted

Undaunted

The True Story Behind the Popular Shock-Jock

Summary

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.
