Welshman Jim Driscoll (aka Peerless Jim) was British Featherweight champion, Londsdale belt holder and a Ring Magazine Hall of Fame inductee.
Known for his wily and strategic style, Jim put his strategy to paper in his book 'Ringcraft' from 1910. This highly visual book is designed to give aspiring and active boxers the benefit of his ring wisdom.
It contains the strategies needed for success and how to deal with types of opponent, fouls and clinches, mind-set and all the small nuances of the sweet science that a boxer must be aware of.
It is not a guide for basics per-se and is more so a professional's view on what you need to know to take your boxing and ringcraft to the next level. Highly detailed in nature and uses examples and anecdotes from his career to best illustrate how to survive and thrive in the ring.
