A propos du livre

Revue de presse :

"Ali's life has been documented many times over, but never has anyone captured the essence of his ongoing appeal as well as Miller. A poignant and unforgettable portrait of the sports legend" (Booklist)

"A fine, rare book... This story is a classic, one of the standards against which I'll measure all other sports writing" (Glenn Stout The Best American Sports Writing)

"An elegant, moving portrait of the phenomenon that is Ali... Compelling" (Independent)

"Told in clear, spare prose, Miller's warm celebration of Ali will have readers cheering for the man who calls himself "The Greatest of All Times" - and for his Boswell too" (Publishers Weekly)

"Miller's memoir is every fan's ultimate dream-come-true. This is a tender, terrific one-of-a-kind book - a must-read" (Ron Shelton director and writer (Bull Durham, White Men Cant's Jump))

Présentation de l'éditeur :

Muhammad Ali was the greatest boxer the world has ever seen, and the most charismatic athlete of all time. Mesmeric both inside the ring and out, Ali has been a role model, a spiritual thinker and a symbol of courage for thousands of people.

Davis Miller was a sickly 12-year-old child when he first encountered Ali. From this meeting there developed a powerful personal relationship that has lasted decades. The Tao of Muhammad Ali is a unique portrait of this exceptional fighter, and a compelling story of hero-worship, of fathers and sons, of strength through wisdom.
