Description
These guys make Rocky seem like an art major — like he was once running up those stairs just to patronize the museum to which they lead (so eager was once he to try the Cezanne exhibit).
In “Boxing in Philadelphia,” Gabe Oppenheim spotlights real Philly pugs — the champs, contenders and even chumps known for heart within the ring, sparring wars within the gym, and colorful lives at the city’s all the time-uncertain streets. And a history of those streets, too — Oppenheim tells the tale of Philly as perennial urban underdog — as a scrappy, gritty town in New York’s shadow that grew rougher when the factories left and the neighborhood gyms started to close.
It’s a story of the rise and fall (and potential rise once more) not only of Philly boxing but of the city itself. Excuse the outlandish price, which angers even the creator but which he is powerless to change and never set within the first place. Happy reading, folks.
