Muhammad Ali, the People's Champ

Ali as cultural icon, antiwar protestor, narcissist ...this is the first book to comprehensively evaluate Ali's import outside the ring.

"Essential reading...A great book"
-- The Historian

"Offers real insight into the Ali phenomenon; and the essays are interesting from a purely historical standpoint, for Ali is one of the most compelling figures, socially and politically, of the 20th century"
-- San Francisco Review of Books
