'Davis Miller writes profoundly and beautifully.' Joyce Carol Oates

Collected here for the first time are the best of Davis Miller's essays and memoirs. The volume contains his celebrated trilogy of award-winning Muhammad Ali pieces, including the classic 'My Dinner with Ali', together with a provocative new essay called 'The Yin and the Yang of Muhammad Ali'. There are also two pieces about Miller's unusual relationship with another boxer, 'Sugar' Ray Leonard, and he continues to explore the Bruce Lee phenomenon - as he did in his acclaimed bestseller The Tao of Bruce Lee. The Zen of Muhammad Ali tells us about fighting, living, friendship and love. The pieces are arranged - each with an illuminating new note - to form a unique and haunting book.

Praise for The Zen Of Muhammad Ali

Davis Miller writes profoundly and beautifully.

Joyce Carol Oates

Easygoing but unflippant, formless yet rigorous. Solid reporting and sumptuous storytelling. Miller's is an American voice attractive to Brits.

Tom Birch, The Guardian

Engaging . . . often poetic.

Desmond Barry, The Observer

Filled with the clarity of ordinary human experience.
