A fully updated, comprehensive collection of true, inspirational profiles of successful young men from throughout history who made their mark on the world before age twenty. BOYS WHO ROCKED THE WORLD introduces readers to forty-five movers and shakers who rocked the world. A variety of achievements, interests and ethnic backgrounds are represented, from Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart and Bruce Lee to Crazy Horse and Stephen King. Personal aspirations from today's young men are interspersed throughout the book, as well as profiles of teenagers who are out there rocking the world right now - boys like John Collinson, the youngest person to climb the Seven Summits and Alec Loorz, who founded the non-profit organisation Kids vs. Global Warming.
