Description

An oral history of a time in the 1920s and 1930s when Jewish athletes were the dominant ethnic group in professional boxing in the United States. The author draws on his own personal experience in New York City's fight arenas, and incorporates interviews with more than 30 former boxers, trainers, managers, promoters, and boxing judges. It explores the careers of Jewish boxers both outside and inside the ring, many of whom went on to become successful trainers, managers, and promoters in the world of professional boxing.
