Publisher's Synopsis

W. C. Heinz (1915-2008) is widely regarded as one of America's greatest sportswriters. With a freshness of perception, a gift for characterisation, and an ear for dialogue and for the rhythms of American speech, he brought a novelist's sensibility to every assignment. Jimmy Breslin called Heinz's Brownsville Bum', a brief life of Al 'Bummy' Davis, Brooklyn street tough and onetime welterweight champion of the world, the best magazine story of any kind, ever.'
