Fred Hollows is an Aussie ledgend, & when he passed away the world lost a really down-to-earth, irreverend, dedicated man... Peter Corris is also one of my Aussie heroes, & in writing this biography he extensively interviewed Fred Hollows & used his own words to tell his story... even now, years after first reading this book, I can vividly recall that reading the words off the page, you could hear the tone & inflection of Fred himself... a wonderful collaboration!

Recommends it for: everyone
I always enjoying read biographies, so this book about Fred Hollows certainly caught my interest. Fred Hollows is a silent-hero in Australia, whether he likes the title or not. This book puts his life into full perspective and helps put focus where otherwise we assumed so much about him. IMHO, everyone should read this book, and be inspired by someone so genuine, real, honest and a ' top bloke '.
I will add more details here when I finish the book.

Hard work, beer and eye surgery. Cracker of a book. What a life! Reminds you just how much one person can achieve.

If only the world had more Fred Hollows in it. In my top 10 read autobiographies.
