Ali, paperback/russell routledge

From the author of film-optioned Muhammad Ali Tyneside 1972 comes this exploration of an overlooked chapter in the Muhammad Ali story - the tension-wrought fight between Ali and White Hope Jerry Quarry in a racially-charged Atlanta, early 1970.

The beginnings of Alis entwinement with the city in which he would lift the Olympic flame 26 years later are narrated authoritatively here.
