Muhammad Ali: His Life and Times

Muhammad Ali’s life has been played out just as much on the press’s front pages as it has on the sports pages. In this book, author Thomas Hauser recreates this enviable sporting hero to bring us a story of a deeply religious, generous and unpredictable man who lived life to the fullest both in and out of the ring.

Some three decades after bursting onto the boxing scene at the Rome Olympics as a light-heavyweight gold medal winner, Ali remains an enchanting figure to this day. The legend’s accomplishments in the ring were nothing less than sensational.

The book explores Ali rightfully decreeing himself “The Greatest” after two infamous fights with Sonny Liston and going on to prove he was. We also explore the sensational George Foreman victory, the classic battles against Joe Frazier and the jaw-dropping loss and final win that made him the first fighter ever to twice win back his heavyweight crown.
