Jonathan Eig

Until now, Ali—one of the 20th century's great icons—has never been the subject of a complete, unauthorized biography. Jonathan Eig tells this story. Hailed by Ken Burns as one of America’s master storytellers, Jonathan breaks new ground that radically reshapes our understanding of Ali, shedding important new light on Ali's politics and his neurological condition. Ali: A Life is a story about race, a brutal sport, and a fascinating man who shook up the world.
