A systematic investigation of the origins of boxing; a biomechanical index of boxing methods; an exploration of sacral prizefighting in Babylon; the methods of the stick-fighting boxers of Egypt; and the secrets of the mysterious boxer kings of Crete.
This is the first of four volumes that comprise The Broken Dance: A Fighter’s View of Boxing and Prize-fighting from Pre-history to the Fall of Rome.
