    Million dollar gate was very good !
    But morlocks some of the more modern ones are just phoned in..
    Also years ago writers could actually talk to any number of informed people who saw some of these bouts ike a hundred burt bienstocks

    sorcery at Caesers was real good. It's about SRL and Hagler. All the events leading up to their fight
    Four Kings is also good

    I’d suggest (already out) The Good Son on Ray Mancini by Mark Kriegel.

    Four Kings is a nice resource. I’ve read it but still pick it up from time to time and open it to a random section and indulge myself for 15 or 20 minutes. Always worth it.

    I actually forgot to mention that one, my mom got it for me a couple years ago, found it in a used book store, it’s excellent
