Requests:  0 Summary:  For three decades at the end of the twentieth century -- throughout boxing's most engrossing era -- James Lawton was ringside, covering every significant bout, spending time with the likes of Muhammad Ali, Sugar Ray Leonard, Marvelous Marvin Hagler, Tommy Hitman Hearns, Roberto Duran, Mike Tyson, Lennox Lewis, Evander Holyfield and many other great fighters. A Ringside Affair brings that brilliant epoch back to life -- and puts it in the perspective it deserves. It salutes the epic quality of boxing's last years of glory, retraces arguably the richest inheritance bequeathed to any sport, and speculates on the possibility that we will never see such fighting again. It is part celebration, part lament, but perhaps most of all it is a personal record of some of most enthralling and challenging days produced by the world's oldest sport.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii State Library Art, Music & Recreation 796.8309 La Checked In Add Copy to MyList
