GOAT - Reviews
"Released yesterday and available at taschen.com, "GOAT" is a heavyweight spectacle that's almost as stunning as Ali's incredible career-and self-promotion. It's an impressive mix of personal reminiscence, inspired journalism, and aggressive design."New York Post, New YorkUnited States |
|
"Only the larger-than-life Ali could be the subject of such a heavyweight tome. Four years in the making, spanning six decades, this book is filled with archival and original photographs, art, articles, and essays by contributors such as Hunter S. Thompson, Hank Kaplan, and Norman Mailer. Seeing Ali's life documented on such an epic scale is a reminder of his overwhelming influence."Toro, TorontoCanada |

"The gift that has caught my attention this year... Pick up the phone now. Operators are standing by."Orlando Sentinel, OrlandoUnited States |
|
"Ali returns to his old stomping grounds for Art Basel Miami Beach to claim his rightful place in the pantheon of art with the U.S. premier of GOAT, A Tribute to Muhammad Ali, a mammoth book that chronicles Ali's evolution and rise from Olympic boxer to Greatest of All Time (GOAT)."Miami Herald, Miami, (Dec 1, 2003)United States |
|
"The greatest coffee-table of all time could be GOAT, the deluxe tribute to Muhammad Ali, being released in the U.S. today by the art-book publisher TASCHEN."Vancouver Sun, VancouverCanada |
|
"For one night, the Miami Beach Convention Center - site of Ali's first heavyweight title victory over Sonny Liston in February 1964 - will be reconfigured to resemble the scene. The invitation-only special ceremony is the brainchild of German book publisher Benedikt Taschen, who will introduce the limited edition book detailing Ali's life."Miami Herald, Miami, FL (Nov 25, 2003)United States |
|
"The GOAT in question is none other than Muhammad Ali, with a massive new biography unveiled by German publisher TASCHEN. But if you think this is big, wait to you get a grip (if you can) on the results."Toronto Star, TorontoCanada |
|
"It was a love fest. . . It was a reunion. . . It was almost like yesterday. . . Ali was a sell out even at Art Basel. As incongruous as it may seem, he truly belonged among the Picassos and Chagalls. For he is still pretty."Miami Herald, Miami, FL (Dec 7, 2003)United States |
|
"...it quickly becomes apparent that this is not a book one easily goes the distance with in a single sitting. It is an exhaustingly definitive tribute."Sunday Times, Cape TownSouth Africa |
|
"It is the ultimate sports collectible, but its appeal is much broader that that, he said: 'It's the most audacious publishing project I've ever seen, the publishing equivalent of an epic movie.'"Steve Riggio, CEO, Barnes and Noble for the New York TimesUnited States |
