Cheeky: Confessions of a Ferret Salesman

Bob Cheek's entry into politics was almost pedestrian for a footy star journalist who made his name and fortune by way of a media and fitness industry career; but once there he tore through Parliament House like a tornado determined to change Tasmania whatever the personal cost. Here, in a brutal post-mortem, Cheek reveals what really happened during that tumultuous period for the Tasmanian Libs. From a humble start selling ferrets, to the corridors of power and back again, Cheek uses his journalistic skills to take us on a journey into the backrooms of political intrigue. A political book like no other, laced with family and footy, humour and heartache.
