Strong Boy: The Life and Times of John L. Sullivan, America's First Sports Hero
Christopher Klein
Hailed by the Boston Globe as “one of the best boxing books ever penned,” Strong Boy is the rags-to-riches story of one of America’s first ethnic heroes, the nation’s first million-dollar athlete, a sports hero decades before Babe Ruth, and the forefather of boxing and sports celebrity as we know them today—John L. Sullivan, “The Boston Strong Boy”
