The Greatest.
When a twelve-year-old boy had his new bicycle stolen he decided to take up boxing so he could "whup" the thief. This same little boy grew up to become the greatest boxing legend the world has ever known. But this book tells more than the story of a handsome black sporting hero. It tells the story of Muhammad Ali, the man who stood up for what he believed was right - whether that was fighting race equality or protesting against war. It reveals a charming and courageous man who despite illness and rejection by the establishment has earned the respect of millions of people around the world.
