This book has been “bathroom reading for me.” It was given to me over the holidays and I have slowly read it. Fortunately or unfortunately, I have a stomach flu and spent a lot of time in the “john” yesterday night. Well, I finished the book, and most people did not need the extra information about the context of reading. This book is motivational. Ali was a great man, we would disagree about religion but we agree on how to treat people. His stories are interesting and powerful. It is a reflection of his life with poems and short accounts of major events. One of the most touching accounts is the time he carried the torch into the Olympics. He has a huge heart and a desire to do what is right. This is a good little book for some light reading. This book was very touching.
