Item description from seller

First Edition. First Edition. *The Welsh Wizard: Howard Winstone* by Les Miles is the inspiring biography of one of Wales's greatest sporting heroes and a former World Featherweight Champion. Tracing Winstone's remarkable journey from the mining town of Merthyr Tydfil to the pinnacle of professional boxing, the book recounts his determination to overcome a devastating factory accident that cost him the tips of three fingers on his right hand, forcing him to reinvent his fighting style. Illustrated with photographs and packed with memorable contests, including his epic rivalry with Vicente Saldivar and eventual world title triumph in 1968, it celebrates the courage and resilience that earned Winstone his enduring nickname, **"The Welsh Wizard."** An essential addition for readers and collectors of boxing history, Welsh sporting biography and twentieth-century sports literature.
