Book description
Collected here for the first time are the best of Davis Miller's essays
and memoirs. The volume contains his celebrated trilogy of award-winning
Muhammad Ali pieces, including the classic 'My Dinner with Ali',
together with a provocative new essay called 'The Yin and the Yang of
Muhammad Ali'. There are also two pieces about Miller's unusual
relationship with another boxer, 'Sugar' Ray Leonard, and he continues
to explore the Bruce Lee phenomenon - as he did in his acclaimed
bestseller The Tao of Bruce Lee. The Zen of Muhammad Ali tells us about
fighting, living, friendship and love. The pieces are arranged - each
with an illuminating new note - to form a unique and haunting book.
Davis Miller's writing has appeared in Rolling Stone, Men's Journal,
Esquire, Sport magazine, Sports Illustrated, and numerous other
periodicals. His first published story, 'My Dinner with Ali' was voted
by the Sunday Magazine Editors Association to be the best essay
published in a newspaper magazine in the US in 1989. Davis Miller has
two children and lives in North Carolina.
