Description

"Recreating the drama of their momentous bout, the author traces the lives of both fighters before and after the fight, including Schmeling's efforts in Nazi Germany to protect Jewish friends and the boxers' surprising friendship in the post-war years. In Ring of Hate he offers the saga of two decent human beings drawn together by their chosen profession and divided by the cruel demands of competing nations."--Jacket.
