    The same author, Thomas Hauser, wrote the brilliant book called 'The Black Lights'. If you haven't read or heard about it, it follows the story of former WBC light welter champ Billy Costello, and branches into many other spin-off stories. Not pretty, but a great read!

    If anyone has a degree in reading, I recommend 'Gentleman Bruiser' by Bob Peterson. The book is an incredible peice of informative literature on the life of Peter Jackson. Its just impossible to read!!
