Includes List of Other Titles in A Hard Road to Glory series; Author Dedication; Publisher's Statement dated March 1993; Views of Sport: Taking the Hard Road with Black Athletes by Arthur R. Ashe, Jr.; Foreword by Ralph Wiley, October 1993; Foreword to A Hard Road to Glory: A History of the African-American Athlete, Volumes 1 - 3; Acknowledgments; Reference Section and Index. "A Hard Road to Glory was an emotional experience for me because it dealt so intimately, at almost every stage, with both the triumph and tragedy, the elation and suffering, of blacks as they met not only the physical challenges of their sports but also the gratuitous challenges of racism. No sport was exempt from this painful double history." - Arthur R. Ashe, Jr. "The most comprehensive reference source on African-American athletes yet compiled." - San Francisco Chronilce. "No library should be without A Hard Road to Glory." - Stan Isaacs, New York Newsday. "The definitive documentation of African-American sporting history." - Kenny Moore, Sports Illustrated. "A Hard Road to Glory . is a compendium of the African-American athlete in boxing. Boxing has given the African-American athlete an oppotrunity to catch the national imagination through physical prowess. The earlier boxers, such as Jack Johnson and Joe Louis, stood as symbols of black equality if not superiority. Even before Johnson there were super black boxers. This book tells their stories and looks at their records. The text and reference materials for this book were taken from the three-volume set, A Hard Road to Glory, and combined into this single volume." - from the rear outer cover.
