It was the night of February 25, 1964. A cloud of cigar smoke drifted through the ring lights. Cassius Clay threw punches into the gray floating haze & waited for the bell.

When Cassius Clay burst onto the sports scene in the 1950s, he broke the mould. He changed the world of sports & went on to change the world itself: from his early fights as Cassius Clay, the young, wiry man from Louisville, unwilling to play the noble & grateful warrior in a white world, to becoming Muhammad Ali, the voice of black America & the most recognised face on the planet.

King of the World is the story of an incredible rise to power, a book of battles fought inside the ring & out. With grace & power, Pulitzer Prize-winning writer David Remnick tells of a transcendent athlete & entertainer, a rapper before rap was born. Ali was a mirror of his era, a dynamic figure in the racial & cultural clashes of his time & King of the World is a classic piece of non-fiction & a book worthy of Americas most dynamic modern hero.
