In the Ring With Tommy Burns is the sixth book in Adam J. Pollack's
heavyweight boxing champion series. It thoroughly and meticulously
describes Tommy Burns' boxing career, using multiple local next-day
primary sources to give the book an unparalleled accuracy and
authenticity that has been the hallmark of the series. As always,
Pollack offers round by round descriptions, pre- and post-fight
analysis, bout preparation and negotiations, and provides context
for the period, discussing opponents and what other contenders were
doing at the time. By reviewing and experiencing Burns' career from
the perspective of those who saw him box, one obtains far greater
appreciation and respect for the skills and accomplishments of this
underrated champion. The book includes 378 pages, over 100 photos,
Burns' record, over 650 footnotes, and an index. Adam J. Pollack is
the author of John L. Sullivan: The Career of the First Gloved
Heavyweight Champion, In the Ring With James J. Corbett, In the
Ring With Bob Fitzsimmons, In the Ring With James J. Jeffries, and
In the Ring With Marvin Hart. He is a member of the Boxing Writers'
Association of America, a staff writer for Cyberboxingzone.com, and
an attorney living in Iowa City, Iowa.
