Shadow Box
Product Description
Shadow Box
- Used Book in Good Condition
SHADOW BOX is one of George Plimpton's most engaging looks at professional sport through the eyes of an amateur.
Stepping into the ring against the light-heavyweight champion Archie Moore, Plimpton pauses to wonder why he ever became a participatory journalist. Bloodied but unbowed, he holds his own in the bout - and brings back this timeless look at boxing and its devotees, among them Muhammed Ali, Joe Frazier, Ernest Hemingway, and Norman Mailer.
