{"product_id":"9781553803102","title":"Strongman: The Doug Hepburn Story","description":"This compelling biography of Doug Hepburn, the weightlifter who won gold for Canada in Stockholm in 1953 and at the British Empire Games in Vancouver in 1954, delivers fascinating, first-hand information about an unusual Vancouver athlete and the sporting world of the 1950s and 1960s. In this plain-spoken and moving biography of a strength legend, Tom Thurston captures the story of a Canadian who may have been the strongest man in history. The book traces Doug's rise to prominence, his temporary fall from grace as he battled alcoholism, and his re-emergence as an advocate for drug-free sport. The author also includes Doug's unique training schedule for increasing strength without the use of drugs.","brand":"Ronsdale Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47171216998640,"sku":"9781553803102","price":17.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781553803102_p0.jpg?v=1763753047","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781553803102","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
