Lennox Lewis: The Autobiography of Britain's First World Heavyweight Champion This Century

An autobiography of Lennox Lewis, who was born in East London and moved to Canada at the age of 12 after the traumatic breakup of his family. The book tells of the playground fighting which led his Canadian headmaster to steer him towards boxing and his fabulous amateur career. It also tells the inside story of the boxing world, tracing the wheeling and dealing and double crosses that characterize it. The book is published to coincide with the Lewis-Bruno fight in September 1993.
