“The Fight” by Norman Mailer
$100.00
On October 30, 1974, in Kinshasa, Zaire, at the virtual center of Africa, two legendary boxers were paid $5 million apiece to confront each other in an epic match. One was Muhammad Ali, who vowed to reclaim the championship he had lost. The other was George Foreman, who was as taciturn as Ali was valuable who kept his hands in his pockets “the way a hunter lays his rifle back into its velvet case.”
Norman Mailer captured this event in this book which first published in 1975 and considered to be a masterpiece of sports writing to this day.
