A “humbling, inspiring . . . deeply emotional” biography of the boxing legend who held the heavyweight world championship for more than eleven years (Kirkus Reviews, starred review). Known as the Brown Bomber, Joe Louis defended his heavyweight title an astonishing twenty-five times. Through the 1930s, he got more column inches of newspaper coverage than President Roosevelt. At a time when the boxing ring was the only venue where black and white could meet on equal terms, Louis embodied Black America’s hope for dignity and equality. And in 1938, his politically charged defeat of German boxer Max Schmeling made Louis a national hero on the world stage. Through meticulous research and first-hand interviews, acclaimed biographer Randy Roberts presents a complete portrait of Louis and his outsized impact on sport and country. Digging beneath the simplistic narratives of heroism and victimization, Roberts reveals an athlete who carefully managed his public image, and whose relationships with both the black and white communities—including his relationships with mobsters—were deeply complex. “Roberts is a fine match with his subject. He supports with powerful evidence his contention that Louis’s impact was enormous and profound.” —The Boston Globe

When I speak of Joe Louis, I sum it up by saying¿¿I had an accidental contact with greatness.¿ I moved to Las Vegas from Detroit in 1974. I had the real honor and pleasure to know the greatest heavyweight boxing champion of all times, Joe Louis. I had the even greater honor and pleasure of marrying one of Joe¿s daughters, Candice¿The most beautiful woman I¿ve ever seen in my life. We¿ve been together thirty nine years, which of course means¿¿I haven¿t won a fight in 39 years.¿No other athlete in the past century was more closely associated with America and Democracy and standing up for America as was Joe Louis. It is hard to imagine a time when a boxer could ever again mean as much to an entire race of people as Joe Louis did. Long before the black athlete was given a chance to participate in American sports on a real professional level, there was only Joe Louis. It¿s hard for us to believe the significance of Joe Louis to an entire generation of our parents, grandparents and the downtrodden of those depression times. There is no one in today¿s sports world who inspires the hope and dignity that Detroit¿s Brown Bomber did for so many. This book explores the life and legacy of Joe Louis, a True American Hero and Sports Icon. Written from a family perspective, this book includes accomplishments and personal insights never before in print. Most don't know that Joe Louis was instrumental in the desegregation of the US Military, Baseball and Tennis...Joe Louis desegregated Professional Golf by being the first black man to play in a PGA sanctioned event...Not withstanding, he was the grandson of slaves.Read my "Accidental Contact With Greatness" and "Tell Your Kids".
