Jesse Ventura: The Body, the Mouth, the Mind

112 pp. | Lerner/Twenty-first Century | September, 2001 | Library ISBN 0-7613-1905-0 $$25.40
(3) YA Casual prose relates the story of Ventura from his boyhood, when he was known as Jim Janos, through his experiences as a Navy SEAL, as a professional wrestler, and now as governor of Minnesota. Illustrated with an insert of color photographs, the text does a good job showing the perseverance, the straight-talking, and the occasional personal contradictions that have made Ventura unique among modern politicians. Bib., ind.
