What was boxing's "The Greatest" like when he was out of the ring or the cameras weren't rolling? The answer according to daughter and author Hana Ali is simply and unquestionably: the greatest. Here, the third youngest child of Muhammad Ali (1942â2016) draws from a treasure chest of previously unseen material to paint a picture of the private Ali. Included are extensive audio tapes he made in the late 1970s and early 1980s of himself interacting with Hana, her sister Laila, and his third wife, Veronica, at their Los Angeles home. There are also published and unpublished photos; journals, poems, and notes; undelivered love letters from Muhammad to Veronica, written even as their marriage was slipping away; and memories from the time the family broke apart until Ali's death.
Copyright 2019 Library Journal.VERDICT Scholars of the sweet science won't find much new here, but Ali's fans and general readers will enjoy a charming glimpse into the private life of one of the most public of men (and few will come away from the author's description of her last visit to their old home with dry eyes).âJim Burns, formerly with Jacksonville P.L., FL
