This is a revealing look at the history of race relations in the
United States during the first half of the twentieth century
portrayed through the lives and times of the first two
African-American heavyweight boxing champions, Jack Johnson and Joe
Louis. Incorporating extensive research into the black press of the
time, the author explores how the public careers and private lives
of these two sports figures both define and explain vital national
issues from the early 1900s to the late 1940s.
