As the father of extreme sports, Evel Knievel represented a unique slice of American culture and patriotism. His jump over the fountains at Caesar’s Palace in Las Vegas led to a crash unlike anything seen before. And, his dazzling motorcycles and colourful outfits became an integral part of an American decade. But behind the flash and frenzied lifestyle was a complicated and dark personality. This story, which is one that has been largely untold so far, is the definitive biography of a sports legend and an American icon.
