Jack Dempsey: The Hard Road He Took to Becoming a Heavyweight Boxing Champion (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798248950119)

Jack Dempsey was one of the greatest heavyweight fighters in boxing history. For seven years, from 1919 to 1926, he was the heavyweight champion of the world. Jack's fights were known to draw large crowds, and several such fights even made a million dollars at the gate.

But long before Jack Dempsey became a household name in sports, he was a mine worker from a small town in Colorado. This is the story of how tough life was in Jack's day, in what was then an obscure part of the United States, far away from big cities like Chicago and New York. Yet somehow, some way, Jack Dempsey would emerge to become an American hero.
