Hauser’s intriguing biography is regarded as perhaps the best written, well-researched, and most compelling book ever written about The Greatest of All Time.

Dominant in the boxing world, Ali’s wit, integrity, willingness to take chances on the riskiest stage, and overall achievements make his life outside the ring as compelling as within. Thomas Hauser shows himself to be a heavyweight champ with the pen, documenting the glory and tumult of Muhammad Ali’s life.

Muhammad Ali and his accomplishments in the ring are legendary, and Hauser spares no detail in recounting The Champ’s most famous bouts - the two fights with Sonny Liston, when he proclaimed himself ""The Greatest""; the three epic battles against Joe Frazier; the victory over George Foreman in Zaire -- the shocking losses and triumphant victories, the first man to claim the heavyweight crown three times.

Using a mountain of material, including comments from Ali himself and interviews with over 200 family members, friends, opponents and others, Hauser brings to light the essence of Muhammad Ali the man outside of the ring. A man of great morality, dignity, and generosity, whose achievements both in and outside of the ring is more than merit the nickname, The Greatest of All Time.
