Customer Reviews

A fascinating, eye-opening account of the early life of the King. Ali's achievements inside and outside the ring are of themselves a compelling read and David Remnick's writing absolutely canes it. I read this book in two sittings. I have always been too squeamish to watch boxing but Remnick's blow-by-blow accounts set against the vicious background of behind the scenes shenanigans set my heart racing.
