The Magnificent Max Baer
Author: Colleen Aycock
Publisher: McFarland
ISBN: 1476632901
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 321
Book Description
Boxing might not have survived the 1930s if not for Max Baer. A contender for every heavyweight championship 1932-1941, California's "Glamour Boy" brought back the "million-dollar gate" not seen since the 1920s. His radio voice sold millions of Gillette razor blades; his leading-man appeal made him a heartthrob in The Prizefighter and the Lady (1933). The film was banned in Nazi Germany--Baer had worn a Star of David on his trunks when he TKOed German former champ Max Schmeling. Baer defeated 275-pound Primo Carnera in 1934 for the championship, losing it to Jim Braddock the next year. Contrary to Cinderella Man, (2005), Baer--favored 10 to 1--was not a villain and the fight was more controversial than the film suggested. His battle with Joe Louis three months later drew the highest gate of the decade. This first comprehensive biography covers Baer's complete ring record, his early life, his career on radio, film, stage and television, and his World War II army service.

Book Description
Hi! My name is Max. Yes, I'm a dog and you're probably a human reading this. Sure, I flunked out of service dog training for disobeying commands, but did get high marks for personality, tail wagging, and my specialty—making humans happy. I’m so good at those, my favorite human Nate Pierson, Innkeeper of The Two Turtles Inn, Sanibel Island Florida, named me Concierge in charge of Guest Happiness. I love every human I meet like Dr. Aaron Swift who stayed here after his fiancée, Beth, dumped him for his best man right before their wedding. Aaron cancelled his honeymoon too late to get his deposit back so he stayed here for his “non-honeymoon.” As Concierge, I took him for walks and listened to his feelings before putting my own plan into action to mend his broken heart. I just happen to know a beautiful divorcee who might want to stroll with us. My friend Mariah wrote about Aaron and my 'other adventures.' She says I have a lot of complications to solve like Beth who keeps trying to make Aaron unhappy. Nate says I have a talent for this concierge business. So if you want to walk on the beach and chat, I’m the best dog for the job. You'll see when you read my story! As Nate says, 'Always Bet on Fur!' Thanks for listening. I'll see you at the Two Turtles Inn! Your Friend, Max - Canine Concierge of Love
