I haven't seen an ebook of it. You might want to try your public library. Here in Michigan they have a very well organized request system in that you can request books from other public and college libraries to be sent to the local library. He's definitely an interesting boxer. I just requested the book, Charles Burley, The Life and Hard Times of an Uncrowned Champion.

Reading Newspaper Articles via Google News

A friend of mine just showed me a nifty feature of Google, called Google News. I can look through many newspapers although mostly the NY Times, but it give me a wide range of information on fighters as well as their boxing matches.

You can see for yourself here: Google News Archive
-I set the date for 1870-1970, and you can change that around depending on what you're searching for. It's set for "free articles only", so if you want to find any articles that require payola, then you're welcome to change the settings as you see fit. Check it out, there are a lot of interesting articles out there.

As for another online newspaper resource, you might want to consider this: Chronicling America. It has newspapers from 1900-1910 some of which have excellent boxing coverage for the time.

Cinderella Man: James J. Braddock, Max Baer and the Greatest Upset in Boxing History - Audiobook

This was a very interesting look into the life of James Braddock, emphasizing his spectacular accomplishment of seizing the heavyweight crown from Max Baer. It's information is right on, captivating and much more in depth than the partial story displayed in the movie. It's a good read, and in this case a pleasure to listen to. Enjoy this audiobook.

Dear Chris,

I'm an young boxing fan from Korea.
I'm more interested in old boxing days and I was looking for some Jack Dempsey's book.
That's how I came here and I just found out this article today.

Could you help me, please?
Sorry for my poor english.
