Facing Ali
by Stephen Brunt
Muhammad Ali cast a blinding light on his sport, on the tumultuous times in which he reigned as champion, and on all the people who surrounded him. That included the fighters brave enough to stand alone, in the ring with the greatest heavyweight champion of all time. Ali's own story has been told often, but the tales of those who faced him have been mostly overlooked. For each, the moments alone in the ring with Ali changed their lives. FACING ALI tells the stories, in the fighters' own words, of fifteen men from around the world--from famous names like Joe Frazier, George Foreman, and Henry Cooper, to lesser lights like Tunney Hunsaker, Jergen Blin, and George Chuvalo. FACING ALI offers a unique perspective on what it was like to fight Ali, and gives new insights into the character of a boxer who is arguably the most recognized man on the planet.
More Than a Hero
by Muhammad Ali
The great prizefighter's daughter collects poems written by her father expressing his unique style of wordplay in and out of the ring, in a collection complemented by personal black-and-white photographs.
Redemption Song
by Mike Marqusee
Is there a more characteristic figure of the sixties than Muhammad Ali-playful and political, popular and non-conformist, defiant and triumphant? In a unique new book, Mike Marqusee puts the great boxer back in his true historical context to explore a crucial moment at the cross-roads of popular culture and mass resistance. He traces Ali's interaction with the evolving black liberation and anti-war movements, including his brief but fascinating liaison with Malcolm X, as well as his encounters with Martin Luther King. Marquesee's elegant and forceful narrative explores the origins and impact of Ali's dramatic public stands on race and the draft, and reinterprets the 'Rumble in the Jungle', shedding new light on its triumph and tragedy. Above all, he imbues Ali's story with a long-neglected international dimension, revealing why he was embraced with such warmth by diverse peoples across the globe. This timely antidote to the apolitical celebration of Ali as 'a great American' revisits the man and the period with a fresh eye, casting new light on both his courage and his confusions.
Sucker Punch
by Jack Cashill
Muhammad Ali
by John Tessitore
Crowned heavyweight champion of the world three times, Muhammad Ali proved that he had the mental and physical toughness to succeed in the ring. But, as this biography illustrates, throughout his life Ali also proved to be a champion to the civil rights movement and ultimately a champion to the world.
