Book description
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.
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.
