Book Reviews of King of the World: Muhammad Ali and the Rise of an American Hero
Book Review: A GOOD BOOK; FOR WHAT IT INCLUDED
Summary: 4 Stars
THIS BOOK IS REALLY WELL WRITTEN. THE AUTHOR FAILS IN ONLY ONE WAY; HE SHORTCHANGES THE IMPORTANCE OF ALI AFTER HE FOUGHT PATTERSON. THIS BOOK ONLY REALLY COVERS UP TO 1965. IT GLOSSES OVER EVERYTHING AFTER THAT PERIOD OF TIME. COSSELL IS ONLY MENTIONED IN PASSING. IT IS A GOOD BOOK, BUT TO MAKE IT A GREAT BOOK, REMNICK IS GOING TO HAVE TO COME OUT WITH SECOND VOLUME TO DETAIL THE REST OF ALI'S INCREDIBLE LIFE. DEFINITELY WORTH BUYING, AND MOST ASSUREDLY WORTH READING!
