Friends, I'm thrilled to announce the release of my book SMASH HIT: RACE, CRIME, AND CULTURE IN BOXING FILMS. Hardcovers available through Barnes and Noble and will be up on Amazon soon (they currently carry the paperback and Kindle versions). ...and wherever fine books are sold.

@mrstevehunt Reach out to me - I'd love to get a signed copy from you!

It’s always a blast talking with Steve. He runs the conversation like a Swiss watch - always stays on track and really does his homework. The honor is mine.
