Description
A.J. Liebling’s classic New Yorker pieces at the “sweet science of bruising” bring vividly to life the boxing world because it once used to be. It depicts the good events of boxing’s American heyday: Sugar Ray Robinson’s dramatic comeback, Rocky Marciano’s upward push to prominence, Joe Louis’s unfortunate decline. Liebling never fails to search out the human story in the back of the fight, and he evokes the ambience within the arena as distinctly as he does the goings-on within the ring–a combination that prompted Sports Illustrated to name The Sweet Science the most efficient American sports book of all time.
