Dame Susan has been many things: sporting champ and chief executive, Race Relations Commissioner, television star, kiwifruit picker and mother to four boys. Through it all, she has remained resolutely and distinctly herself. In her own words - and in the hilarious, straight-up style that won her legions of new fans on Celebrity Treasure Island - Dame Susan tells the story of her life so far: the wins, the losses, the battles . . . and the bonds that got her through life's hardest challenges.
