Synopsis
Muhammad Ali was one of the greatest champions of all time. His boxing skills were unparalleled, and his words have never been forgotten. From his birth in 1942 in Louisville, Kentucky to his first Golden Gloves win to the Rumble in the Jungle and the Thrilla in Manila, Ali: The Official Portrait of "The Greatest" of All Time is a complete and fascinating exploration of the man whose legendary motto was "float like a butterfly, sting like a bee." From Ali's conversion to Islam to his opposition to the Vietnam War to his later days, every aspect of the fighter's life is illustrated with beautiful, full-color photos. With iconic quotes from Ali inserted throughout the text, this is Ali from every angle, the official portrait of a man whose will was stronger than anyone's.

About the Author
New York Times bestselling author Nancy J. Hajeski has written young adult nonfiction for Hammond, national award-winning romantic fiction for Penguin-Putnam, four Jane Austen graphic-novel adaptations for Marvel Entertainment, and edited a number of Lyon's Press fiction anthologies. Her interest in boxing began in childhood, when she watched prizefights on TV with her father (and saw Muhammad Ali reciting poetry on The Jack Paar Show). That interest was revived during her days as a Regency romance author doing research on an era when gentlemen would travel hundreds of miles by coach to view a match, and where betting was so heavy, fortunes could be won or lost. Hajeski works out of the Catskill Mountains in New York and lives beside a world-class trout stream.
