Greatest of All Time. A Tribute to Muhammad Ali - Reviews (6)
| "You can't put it down. Then again, you can hardly pick it up! Just as Muhammad Ali is "the greatest of all time," so is Greatest Of All Time--A Tribute To Muhammad Ali the greatest book of all time, though GOAT, as this heavyweight champion of a book is called, is poorly served by calling it merely a book… Of course, if you weren't among the lucky 10,000 who could afford (the Collector’s Edition) GOAT, you could only read about it--until now. TASCHEN has recently published a revised, updated and smaller version--though you still have to be an Olympic weightlifter, almost, to hold it. Slimmed down to 17 pounds, the so-called "lightweight edition" is a 652-page, 13 x 13 in. hardcover with two gatefolds. And even priced at $150, it truly is a steal…The pictures are breathtaking… But this amazing book covers it all--a veritable history of American culture in the 1960s and beyond, by way of one of its historic achievers."— Examiner.com, |

| "Neil Leifer) photographed Ali on 70 occasions, among them 35 of his greatest fights, including matches against George Foreman, Joe Frazier, Ken Norton and Leon Spinks. His shots have graced the covers of top US magazines Sports Illustrated, Time, Life and Esquire. Neil also shot all three battles between Ali and arch-rival Frazier, including the legendary Thriller in Manila in the Philippines in 1975…Neil and Howard Bingham, Ali’s closest friend, are the two main photographers whose work is featured in Greatest of All Time by German publishers TASCHEN, first brought out in 2003. There were two limited editions of the 700-page work of art, which weighs 75lbs. The first 1000 copies of the Champion’s Edition were personally signed by Ali, accompanied by a sculpture by pop-artist Jeff Koons, and sold for £10,000. Now a new edition called Greatest of All Time – A Tribute to Muhammad Ali is one sale for £99.99..."— Sunday Mail, Glasgow, United Kingdom |
| "Greatest Of All Time, is a massive book, and is packed with wonderful photography and essays about Ali’s career in and out of the boxing ring…There is some outstanding photography from people like Howard Bingham and Neil Leifer. Before opening this book, I’d never seen color photography of Ali’s Sonny Liston bouts. There are some amazing pictures of Ali early in his career and a great image of him mugging with The Beatles. I was expecting to see the photos but the essays are also invaluable and originate from many sources across three decades."— Abebooks.com, |

| "When G.O.A.T. was first published seven years ago—with a heavyweight price of $3,500 and a limited edition—it was a big hit with collectors and hailed in the German press as "a monument on paper" to the great fighter and humanitarian it honored. Now TASCHEN is making the book more widely available in a trade edition, hardcover, 652 pages, priced at $150—smaller in size but it still packs a punch."— Publisher’s Weekly, New York, United States |
