At the pinnacle of his boxing career during the 1960s and early
1970s, Muhammad Ali seemed to be a cultural symbol of the times. He
has been viewed by some as a hero and by others as a rebel, but
either way he is arguably the most famous American in the world.
This worldly admiration was perhaps best illustrated with his
lighting of the Olympic torch during the opening ceremony of the
1996 Summer Olympic Games in Atlanta. Ali's life is described from
his birth to the present, with an emphasis on his career through
1975. The work covers such topics as his various boxing matches
including "The Thrilla in Manilla," his religious conversion to the
Nation of Islam, the Vietnam War, and his efforts to promote world
peace. A timeline provides key events in Ali's life, and the work
concludes with a bibliography of print and electronic sources for
additional research.
