The Official Charles Bronson Quiz Book


Book Description

Charles Bronson is undoubtedly the most notorious prisoner in Britain and is not only a household name but also as much of an institution as the multitude of Her Majesty's establishments whose doors he has graced over the last 37 years, most of that time spent in solitary confinement. A film about Charlie's life and several no-holds-barred autobiographies have allowed us many interesting insights into the real man behind the myths – the fitness fanatic, the poet, the artist, the philosopher and the comic, to name but a few of his myriad faces. So these 100 quiz questions should be more of short brain stretch than a life sentence. Charlie remains in solitary in Wakefield Prison, having had parole refused time and time again. He still dreams of that day of freedom and, together with his friends and well-wishers, will keep fighting for life outside ‘the cage’. These quiz questions, however testing, will ensure that Charlie secures a place at the forefront of our minds and is never forgotten.

Introduction to Charles Bronson (prisoner)


Book Description

Charles Bronson, also known as Michael Gordon Peterson, is a British criminal who is notorious for his violent behavior both inside and outside of prison. Born in 1952 in Aberystwyth, Wales, Bronson had a difficult childhood, marred by poverty, bullying and abuse. He began his criminal activities at a young age and spent his early years in and out of prison for various offenses, such as robbery and assault. Bronson's notoriety increased in the 1970s and 80s, when his violent outbursts in prison grabbed headlines and gained him infamy. He spent long periods in solitary confinement due to his aggressive behavior, and even took hostages at times. Despite his violent tendencies, Bronson became something of a cult hero, admired by some for his rebelliousness and unconventional ways. He also developed a reputation for being physically strong, even performing as a bare-knuckle boxer and writing books about his criminal exploits. He has been in prison for over four decades, making him one of the UK's longest-serving prisoners.
