Beschreibung
"e;Captures the excitement that Ali created in a generation of young African Americans, who found in the brash, young boxer a new kind of hero."e; -BooklistIncludes photosFrom his childhood in the segregated South to his final fight with Parkinson's disease, Muhammad Ali never backed down. He was banned from boxing during his prime because he refused to fight in Vietnam. He became a symbol of the antiwar movement-and a defender of civil rights. As "e;The Greatest,"e; he was a boxer of undeniable talent and courage. He took the world by storm-only Ali could "e;float like a butterfly, sting like a bee."e; From a New York Times-bestselling author and winner of numerous awards-including the Michael L. Printz Award, Newbery Honors, a Caldecott Honor and five Coretta Scott King awards-this is an inspiring biography of Ali, Olympic gold medalist, former heavyweight champion, and one of the most influential people of all time."e;Myers interweaves fight sequences with the boxer's life story and the political events and issues of the day. He doesn't shy away from reporting on the brutality of the sport and documents the toll it has taken on its many stars . . . Myers's writing flows while describing the boxing action and the legend's larger-than-life story."e; -School Library Journal
