It always interesting to read "behind scenes" facts about stars. Im glad I had the opportunity to read this we'll written book about the great Ali.

A wonderful book and all of the quotes inside of the book I remember Ali saying at one time or another. His famous “Float like a butterfly sting like a bee. Rumble young man rumble”. Before the Sonny Liston fight in 1964, but we only remember the first part. “I ‘m the king of the world!” After defeating Sonny Liston. In 1966 “I ain’t got no quarrel with them Vietcong”. Why he refused to serve in the Army. There are more quotes in this book but for me these were the ones that stood out. I remembered them growing up in the sixties and watching him box. This book is filled with more and with pictures some never seen before and a few stories. Overall a good book.

Ali On Ali is a compilation of the most well-known of Mohammed Ali's quotes as well as the context and philosophy behind them.

WHO WOULD ENJOY READING IT?
Fans of the boxer would love the pictures, the quotes, the historical references, and relive some of "The Greatest"'s victories over powerful rivals.

WHAT I LOVE ABOUT IT
Mohammed Ali's daughter is one of the authors of this book - this lends a bit of authenticity to the experiences and perspectives recorded. From her view, we are able to see how Mohammed Ali saw his rivals, what boxing meant to him, as well as his personal politics.

Ali On Ali: Why He Said What He Said When He Said It by Hana Ali and Danny Peary is available to buy on all major online bookstores. Many thanks to Workman Publishing Company for review copy.

This brilliant book by his daughter reminds readers of the groundbreaking achievements of the boxer, civil rights activist, political commentator, poet and Muslim that was Muhammad Ali!

Muhammad Ali was my hero, so I was really looking forward to this book compiled by his daughter Hana Ali.I was not disappointed, the book is full of quotes made by the great man and Hana supplies a little background to where and when it was used. There are many photos, some very familiar and others I saw for the very first time. I read this book in one sitting and I always knew I would enjoy it but was surprised by the waves of emotion I experienced throughout. Muhammad Ali was an exceptional boxer and very likely the greatest sportsman of all time, but he was so much more . He was at one time the most well known face on the planet, a man of faith, verse and pure genius. The book is full of his many quotes, some funny and very thought provoking that sent shivers down my spine.
A great book but reading it on my pc did not really do it justice. This book is a perfect coffee table book and in my opinion should be viewed in a large colour edition for full effect. A must read for anyone like me who was an hardened fan but also eye opening and inspirational for everyone else. There was only one Muhammad Ali, the greatest.
