A Professional Pugilist is a book written by Harry A. James and published in 1894. The book tells the story of a professional boxer, or pugilist, named Jack Harrison. Harrison is a talented fighter who rises to the top of the boxing world, but he is also haunted by personal demons and struggles with addiction. The book explores the brutal and often corrupt world of professional boxing in the late 19th century, as well as the challenges faced by those who make their living in the sport. Through Harrison's story, James offers a compelling look at the physical and emotional toll of boxing, as well as the complex relationships between fighters, trainers, promoters, and fans. Overall, A Professional Pugilist is a gripping and insightful work of fiction that offers a vivid portrait of a bygone era in sports history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
