Add to basketHardcover / Hardback. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. First edition. Hardback. INSCRIBED AND SIGNED. Foreword by Sugar Ray Leonard. Dave 'Boy' Green was one of the most exciting British boxers of the previous 30yrs. After an amateur career of over 100 fights, he turned professional in 1974 under the guidance of Andy Smith, and within 2yrs captured the British and European light-welterweight titles. Born at Chatteris in the heart of the Fenland region of Cambridgeshire, Green was a throw-back to the days of another local favourite, Eric Boon. Inspired and encouraged by the former lightweight champion, he thrilled packed arenas with his aggresssive, two-fisted brand of fighting, and burst onto the scene at a time when Fenland folk were desperate for a big sporting hero. In 1977, at the peak of his career, Dave fought magnificently against world champion Carlos Palomino, only to be knocked out in the 11th round with the fight in the balance. Undeterred, he re-grouped, won the European welterweight title, and in 1980 again unsuccessfully challenged for the world title, this time in the United States against American superstar, Sugar Ray Leonard. Although Green had a magnificent ring career, this book is not just about boxing. It is an insight into the life of a man brought up in a humble farming community, who through sheer hard work, also became a highly successful businessman and provided a wonderful life-style for his family. Illus. + Appendix. 328pp. 8vo. h/back. From the library of the legendary Scotland Yard detective, the late Leonard 'Nipper' Read, who was Chair then President of the British Boxing Board of Control. PRESENTATION COPY INSCRIBED AND SIGNED BY DAVE 'BOY' GREEN to 'Nipper' Read. F. in Nr. F. dw. A fairly heavy book which may require additional postage if shipped overseas.

Despite having retired from boxing almost 40 years ago, Terry Spinks remains one of the sport's most popular personalities. His story, however, is not just about success. It is also one of failure, sadness and emotion. In fact his life has been a roller-coaster ride.Evacuated from a war-threatened East End during 1939, he then returned to the area devastated by German bombs. He took up boxing at the age of nine, and in an amateur career of 200 contests, won Schoolboy and ABA championships, and boxed for England on five occasions. The pinnacle of his career was in 1956 when he won a gold medal at the Melbourne Olympics. During a successful professional career, he won the British Featherweight championship, but after retiring from the ring in 1962, disaster struck. In the years which followed he had to cope with the pressures of failed business ventures and bankruptcy. An addiction to gambling seriously affected his lifestyle and family well-being. Although he returned to boxing to train the South Korean team for the 1972 Olympics, and later became a successful professional trainer, disaster struck again. Two failed marriages were followed by serious illness which he was fortunate to survive. Only the love, patience and caring of his cousin Rosemary carried him through. Told with warmth, affection and emotion. East End Idol is an enthralling insight into the life of a man who grew up on the streets of Canning Town. Signed by Terry Spinks to previous owner.
