THE BIGGS TIME Ronnie and Michael, Man and Boy

Hardback, 1st edn. Ronnie Biggs and Michael Biggs are no strangers to headline news, but when Ronnie recently gave himself up to the British police after suffering serious illness, the media attention was unprecedented even by Biggs' standards. Now, for the first time, the person closest to Ronnie - his son Michael - reveals what life was really like in Brazil, on the run, and in the Sun. Michael talks candidly about : growing up with an infamous father; the truth about the Great Train Robbery; Michael's own sex, drugs and rock'n'roll years and life in a bestselling boyband; playing cat and mouse with the law and the media.
