Also included are the economics, negotiations, controversies, legal, political, and racial obstacles in making the Harry Wills fight, multiple court battles, Dempsey's personal life, long layoff, and more. Hundreds of rare photos are included. 598 pages based on primary sources, concluding the three-part series of the most thorough books ever written on Jack Dempsey's life and career.
