Book Description

Secondhand. Very good condition. Minor wear to book corners and edges. Small black pen mark on top foredge. Interior and binding are still excellent.

Administrators and broadcasters come and go, but there was something different about Wally Foreman. More than 3000 people filled a stadium in November 2006, to farewell him after his passing from a heart attack, while his memorial service was broadcast on state-wide radio. It was the largest service of its kind in WA.

Wally Foreman grew up in a small country town named Bruce Rock - a place he made famous through regaling the tales from The Rock. He was a career journalist and broadcaster, recognised by name, image and voice, and he fundamentally changed the Australian sporting landscape as the inaugural director of the WA Institute of Sport. Yet, he was far more than all of that.

Written by his son to Charlotte, for the granddaughter he never met, The Legend from Bruce Rock: The Wally Foreman Story details the remarkable, emotional and humorous life of a man who loved and impacted his home state, while always holding his home town in his heart. (publisher blurb)
