Sterling Biographies: Muhammad Ali by Stephen Timblin

He floated like a butterfly and stung like a bee, darting and dancing his way to boxing's heavyweight world championship. In the process, the fleet-footed and motor-mouthed fighter became King of the Ring and more: a cultural icon who dominated headlines, generated controversy and enthralled even those audiences uninterested in the sport. Readers will discover fascinating facts about this dazzling champ including: that he began boxing at only age 12; his involvement in the controversial Nation of Islam; what happened when he refused to fight in the Vietnam War; his present-day battle with Parkinson's Syndrome; and more.
Stephen Timblin has written several sports books covering everything from motocross and NASCAR to the history of swimming. An experienced travel writer, he is coauthor of the Rough Guide to Skiing and Snowboarding and sole author of the Rough Guide to Yellowstone and Grand Teton.
