Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. 256 pages. 256 pp. colour plates. unmarked.Like his talk show, this autobiography delivers more than the everyday - it's ho nest, informative and insightful - and is in Leighton's trademark style. For nea rly 30 years, one voice has dominated the airwaves of New Zealand morning radio, sometimes infuriating his audience but always challenging it to embrace the con cepts of individual responsibility, high standards and opinion based on sound kn owledge. Now, for the first time, the previously private Leighton Smith unveils the person behind the impeccable voice and the conservative views: the religious upbringing; the less than stunning school years; the endless search for a caree r path; the personal traumas behind four marriages; and how he dealt with cancer . Here, too, we meet the influential figures who have helped shape the telling m essages Leighton delivers to his audience each day, the political leaders he's j ousted with over the years and the reasoning behind his stances on the pressing issues of his radio years; not to mention his astounding flirtation with horse r acing, which led directly to his entry into wine-growing.It's all covered in thi s fascinating picture of the man who won not only the inaugural Best Talk Host a ward in 1982 but also the most recent Best Talkback Host of 2013 at the New Zeal and Radio Awards.
