Just finished reading this. Useful for backing up the correct opinion that Muhammed Ali is the most overrated figure of the Twentieth Century. Little more than a simpleton who happened to be a bit "handy", he has been sanctified by a generation who were barely born when he was in his prime. He had no political insight whatsoever and his supposed heroism in refusing the draft (although he never burned his card) came from his manipulation by the ludicrous Nation of Islam. You may disagree with me, but you're wrong.
