Author – Katherine Dunn

one_ring_circus_cvrThis book is a collection of boxing essays and articles that renowned writer Katherine Dunn has had published. This was a wonderful book written by someone who loves boxing. You could just feel her passion for the sport jump out at you as you turned the pages.

There were some great chapters on some of my favorite fighters and famous fights. Historic battles like Hagler’s bouts with Duran, Hearns and Leonard. There is also a fine piece on the Holmes – Cooney classic. In other chapters Katherine highlights some of my favorite fighters. I especially enjoyed her pieces on Alexis Arguello and Johnny Tapia. The Tapia article first appeared in Playboy magazine. There was also a great chapter on Lucia Rijker. One thing is for sure. Katherine Dunn knows boxing and has an artistic flair of presenting the sport to her readers. This book is a must read for any boxing fan. I thoroughly enjoyed it. I believe you will to.
