Descrizione dell’articolo da parte del venditore

Fine unread condition black cloth oversized boards with blindstamped black spine lettering, contained in a fine condition non price-clipped color illustrated dust jacket. Includes Introduction by James Earl Jones; The Fights: A Chronology 1960 - 1981; Contributors; and Credits. Profusely illustrated with over 150 black-and-white and color photographs, plus color illustrated front and rear endpapers. A remainder mark at the lower page edge (see photographs). All pages are in as new unmarked condition and the binding/spine is exceedingly tight and square (see photographs). "No other figure in recent history has had the wide-reaching impact of the man known simply as "The Greatest." For four decades Muhammad Ali has served as a symbol of honesty and strength in sports, politics, reliogion, and civil rights. Throughout his remarkable career, Ali's courage, skill, ego, and beauty made him one of the most colorful and well-known of all public figures; someone who truly had to be seen to be believed. Using fight posters, tickets, rare memorabilia and classic photographs, Ringside brings Ali's extraordinary life into focus. Alex Haley, Norman ailer, Joyce Carol Oates, and Peter Rechmond each chronicle a decade of the boxer's storied career, from his tunning victory over Sonny Liston, when he first captured the heavyweight title, to his epic bouts with Joe Frazier and George Foreman, to his heroic struggles with Parkinson's syndrome. Included throughout are quotes from friends, family, and colleagues offering insight into the legend of Muhammad Ali and what has made him one of the world's true undisputed champions. With contributions from: Jackie Robinson, Malcolm X, Hunter S. Thompson, Jim Brown, ALex Haley, Norman Mailer, Leroi JOnes, Rocky Marciano, Pete Hamill, Bill Russell, Reggie Jackson, David Remnick, Joe Frazier, Peter RIchmond, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, George Plimpton, Joyce Carol Oates, George Foreman, Muhammad Ali and many more." - from the inner front jacket flap.…

Descrizione dello Store

Vero Beach Books is an antiquarian bookseller with a constantly updated inventory of rare out-of-print books, signed books, children's books, plus a large inventory of ephemeral items such as major U.S. city newspapers going back 100 years and more, golden and silver age fine condition comic books (soon to be added), and many other ephemeral items as well as much more recent popular volumes. We have been in business for 25 years, originally known as Emerson Books (named after one of our owner's favorite authors, to wit, Ralph Waldo Emerson) located back then in Westport, Connecticut. That said, we are here to serve you, to offer you fine quality items that are conservatively described so that you will always be pleasantly surprised and delighted with your purchase. Twenty-five years in the bookselling business has borne out our stellar service oriented reputation; the only difference is that now we are located in the almost always sunny and warm climate of Vero Beach, Florida. Again, we are here to serve you and, as was the case when we were previously known on ABEBooks.com as Emerson Books, we will continue to offer our very popular 100% free search service for those hard to find books rare and out of print books. Oftentimes we are also able to obtain these rare finds at very good discounts to our customers' so it is always worth contacting us in such cases!
