The Great John L. is a biography written by James Edward Grant about the legendary boxer John L. Sullivan. The book follows Sullivan's life, from his humble beginnings in Boston to his rise as the heavyweight champion of the world. Grant explores Sullivan's personal struggles with alcoholism and his public persona as an American hero during the late 1800s. The book also delves into Sullivan's famous fights, including his iconic bout against Jake Kilrain that lasted 75 rounds. Through extensive research and interviews, Grant provides a detailed account of Sullivan's life and legacy, painting a vivid picture of one of the most celebrated boxers in history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
