內容簡介

Step into the exhilarating world of late 19th-century boxing and witness the rise of a true sports icon, James J. Corbett, in this gripping biography, "The Roar of the Crowd." Delving into the life and times of one of the most celebrated and influential pugilists in history, this meticulously researched account unveils the remarkable journey of a man who not only mastered the art of boxing but also shattered societal norms, forever changing the face of the sport.


In an era dominated by brute force and raw power, James J. Corbett emerged as the embodiment of grace, strategy, and finesse in the squared circle. Born in San Francisco amid the tumultuous late 1800s, Corbett’s path to greatness was anything but easy. Enduring a challenging childhood, marked by poverty and adversity, he turned to boxing as a means of survival. Little did the world know that the unassuming young man would evolve into an icon of the sweet science.


From his humble beginnings as a street fighter to capturing the world heavyweight title, Corbett’s rise was meteoric. His groundbreaking match against the formidable John L. Sullivan not only secured him the title but also established a new era in boxing, where technique and skill took precedence over brawn alone. Corbett is considered by many to be the "father of modern boxing" for being the first person to apply scientific principles to the art of pugilism.


However, "The Roar of the Crowd" doesn’t merely chronicle the triumphs; it offers an intimate look into the personal struggles and sacrifices Corbett endured behind the scenes. As he navigated the world of fame and fortune, he grappled with newfound temptations and the burden of being a role model for aspiring athletes worldwide.


Here is his story in his own words and chronicles his rise to world champion and all of the successes and defeats along the way. "The Roar of the Crowd" is a tribute to an extraordinary athlete and a testament to the indomitable spirit of the human heart, making it a must-read for sports enthusiasts, history buffs, and anyone captivated by tales of perseverance, triumph, and the enduring roar of the crowd.
