5.0

An excellent biography of a boxing legend. It's sad that he had to ensure so much racism and prejudice. There are some things in this book that made me think, not least the bit about his wife. Very sad to read about Jack Johnson's fall from grace. All in all, a great read. I'd recommend this to anyone who has an interest in boxing history.
