Total Recall: My Unbelievably True Life Story - Arnold Schwarzenegger

\nIn his signature larger-than-life style, Arnold Schwarzenegger's Total Recall is a revealing self-portrait of his illustrious, controversial, and truly unique life. \nThe greatest immigrant success story of our time. \n \nHis story is unique, and uniquely entertaining, and he tells it brilliantly in these pages. \n \nHe was born in a year of famine, in a small Austrian town, the son of an austere police chief. He dreamed of moving to America to become a bodybuilding champion and a movie star. \n \nBy the age of twenty-one, he was living in Los Angeles and had been crowned Mr. Universe. \n \nWithin five years, he had learned English and become the greatest bodybuilder in the world. \n \nWithin ten years, he had earned his college degree and was a millionaire from his business enterprises in real estate, landscaping, and bodybuilding. He was also the winner of a Golden Globe Award for his debut as a dramatic actor in Stay Hungry. \n \nWithin twenty years, he was the world's biggest movie star, the husband of Maria Shriver, and an emerging Republican leader who was part of the Kennedy family. \n \nThirty-six years after coming to America, the man once known by fellow body-builders as the Austrian Oak was elected governor of California, the seventh largest economy in the world. \n \nHe led the state through a budget crisis, natural disasters, and political turmoil, working across party lines for a better environment, election reforms, and bipartisan solutions. \n \nWith Maria Shriver, he raised four fantastic children. In the wake of a scandal he brought upon himself, he tried to keep his family together. \n \nUntil now, he has never told the full story of his life, in his own voice. \n \nHere is Arnold, with total recall.\n
