A collection of boxing stories.

In this bountiful collection of his best boxing stories of the last half-century, Budd Schulberg takes his fans all the way back to an epic bare-knuckle contest in England two hundred years ago; draws a revealing portrait of "Uncle" Mike Jacobs, the promotional impresario of boxing in its Golden Age; expertly places Joe Louis and Muhammad Ali in the social history of their times; brings fans up to date in the careers of the great names of recent decades—Tyson, Holyfield, De La Hoya, Hopkins, "Chico" Corrales; and much more.

Budd Schulberg is also the author of What Makes Sammy Run?, The Harder They Fall, The Disenchanted, On the Waterfront (play and screenplay), and Moving Pictures: Memories of a Hollywood Prince. He lives in Westhampton Beach, New York.
