The James Altucher Show

Description

Steven Pressfield's newest book, "Govt Cheese a memoir", must jump to the top of your reading list. Both gut-wrenching and laugh-out-loud funny, his brutally honest story is a compelling page-turner. Steven's writing career spans many genres and formats, but it almost never materialized. From US Marine to advertising copywriter, schoolteacher, tractor-trailer driver, bartender, oilfield roustabout, mental hospital attendant, migrant fruit-picker, and hack screenwriter, his debut novel - "The Legend of Bagger Vance" - was 30 years in the making before it was published (later to become a major motion picture). Never content with one format, his non-fiction book "The War of Art" has now sold over a million copies globally & his historical fiction novel "Gates of Fire" is on the required reading list at West Point.
