English Description: For centuries there had been fistfighters, and from the early days of industry it was apparent that the Welsh had a particular passion for boxing. In this book the authors trace that passion through the lives of great, brave and elegant champions, by recalling their great bouts and by showing how moments of triumph were celebrated by whole communities.
