Let Me Tell You About Alex Summary

Let Me Tell You About Alex: Crazy Days and Nights on the Road with the Hurricane by John Virgo

'We went into the foyer to sign autographs. Well, I signed - Alex produced an ink pad and stamp marked A Higgins. Sorry, bade, he said between the thump of prints for 150 crestfallen fans, I'm only stamping tonight. JOHN VIRGO There is a tribute book to be written about the nicest man in snooker - but this isn't it. Whatever else he was, Alexander Gordon Higgins wasn't nice. Unpredictable, wild, demonic and obsessive for certain. An unstoppable force who single-handedly transformed snooker from a niche sport into a gripping phenomenon.
