Jack Johnson: In The Ring And Out is a memoir written by the legendary boxer, Jack Johnson. In this book, Johnson takes readers on a journey through his life, from his humble beginnings in Galveston, Texas, to his rise as the first African American heavyweight champion of the world. Johnson shares his experiences of the racial discrimination he faced both in and out of the ring, including his infamous 1910 fight against Jim Jeffries, which sparked riots across the United States. He also discusses his personal life, including his marriages and legal troubles. Throughout the book, Johnson's wit and humor shine through, making it an engaging and insightful read for boxing fans and those interested in American history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
