Praise for this book

This is a beautiful tribute to the legendary Muhammad Ali who inspired the world's hopes and dreams and remains "The Greatest." His winning, courageous spirit in the ring was matched by his lifelong mission of humanitarian work that left this world a better place. Ali's bold challenge is to follow in his footsteps!

In Margueritte Shelton's powerful, passionate storytelling, we see Muhammad Ali at his best as both an athlete beyond compare and a blessed man dedicated to making the world a better, kinder place.

I thought I knew all there was to know about the REAL Muhammad Ali; then I read this book and realized there is so much more to learn about his life. Hugely recommended for all those who want to appreciate the complete Ali.

Margueritte Shelton has captured the fascinating saga of Muhammad Ali in dramatic fashion. His brilliant boxing style, glib sociopolitical comments, and debilitating health consequences are vividly portrayed in this excellent book.
