Talk about great Jewish boxing champions and contenders. Join the celebration for the first photographic history of Jewish champions and contenders in the Golden Age of boxing by eminent boxing historian Mike Silver. "Stars in the Ring" chronicles an era when boxers named "Slapsie Maxie" Rosenbloom, Ruby "The Jewel of the Ghetto" Goldstein, Leach "The Fighting Dentist" Cross, Joe "The Pride of the Bowery" Bernstein and hundreds of other fabulous Jewish boxers literally fought their way out of poverty to become instant heroes to a generation of immigrants struggling to break out of poverty and enter the American mainstream. |
