First edition 1997. xiii+187 pages. Cloth. Acid paper tanned as usual. Very good in dustjacket with some very slight edge wear. In a faded downtown Las Vegas casino, with a hooker for company, a boxing writer and sometime boxer's agent reflects on his exit from the fight scene. The book follows an obsession, and as the world of professional boxing starts to recede, the characters Rendall has lived with - and for - rear into focus one last time; characters such as Jack Kid Berg, Kid Chocolate the Havana Dandy, and Colin "Sweet C." McMillan, the world featherweight champion for whom Rendall acted as manager between 1989 and 1995. Many boxing titles in stock, please ask for our list, or link.
