Ron Ross's Bummy Davis vs. Murder, Inc. is not just about one Jewish boxer, his meteoric rise to fame, and his subsequent victimization. Bummy's life was intertwined with the Great Depression, the survival of the Brooklyn Jewish immigrant population during Prohibition, and the inevitable offshoot of Prohibition - Murder, Inc., one of American history's most notorious band of killers. Ron Ross portrays an important historical time period, an enigmatic Jewish subculture, and the surprising juxtaposition of a generation of Jews and their talent for boxing.
