How a lad from Canterbury hooked a nation on the outdoors
while overcoming the challenges of life in a wheelchair
"Life on Wheels" is a biography style story by Graeme Sinclair, producer, writer, and star of the ever popular Gone Fishin’ series. In his most recent book, he writes candidly about his life and career in a compelling account you won't want to put down.
While many of his younger fans have only ever known him in a wheelchair, for the first 40 years of his eventful life he had the full use of his legs. Struck down unexpectedly with Multiple Sclerosis in his forties, instead of allowing his misfortune to dominate his life, he carried on as normal, adjusting his life on wheels. This presented some interesting challenges, filming and travelling to make the TV shows Gone Fishin, and more currently "Ocean Bounty".
A hero to his younger viewers through Kid’s Gone Fishin’ and the NZ Police blue light program, he puts his ability to relate to kids down to the fact he is at their height and they can look him directly in the eye!
Talking about his upbringing, and his own children will strike a chord with any parent.
His love of the New Zealand outdoors and its ability to heal the spirit and his willingness to talk about the tough times, as well as the good, will reveal facets of this multi-talented man to his audience that they can never have imagined.
This book is only available through this website, is post inclusive, and individually signed by Graeme.
