520			_aHeath Ledger was a superstar on the world stage, a good-hearted guy, a true romantic, a man who was dedicated to his craft and who loved a laugh. This is the definitive look at the real life of Heath Ledger from childhood to fully-fledged stardom, with exclusive personal insights from his family and friends. It is also very much a story about the beginning of a legend. When he was just 17 years old, Heath drove across the country from his hometown of Perth in Western Australia to Sydney, determined to follow his passion for acting. It was not long before he became a celebrity on the world stage. But behind his journey to Hollywood, financial turmoil rocked his family. And while his death came as a surprise to the public, those who knew him best were aware of his problems. Those who knew him best were also aware of the allegations that he had fathered a child before his rise to fame. Extensively researched by respected journalist Janet Fife-Yeomans, this beautifully written story of Heath Ledger is a tribute to his all too short life.
