Excerpt from Life and Battles of James J. Corbett: The Champion Pugilist of the World In order that the thousands interested in pugilism in both hemispheres, who have read or heard how James J. Corbett of San Francisco won the prize ring championship of the World, in a contest for $10,000 a side and a purse of $25,000 offered by the now historic Olympic Club, of New Orleans, La., may read a graphic description of the big battle and also know something about the champion of the world in 1892, Richard K. Fox has decided to publish the book entitled the "Life and Battles of James J. Corbett, the Champion Pugilist of the World." The book is illustrated and contains complete reports of Corbett's defeat of Jake Kilrain; his drawn battle for $10,000 with Peter Jackson, the Black Demon, and his historic encounter with John L.Sullivan, who had held the title from 1882 to 1886 and from 1889 to 1892 without ever meeting with defeat. Owing to the fact that there are millions who did not see the great contest between Corbett and Sullivan on Sept. 7, 1892, in New Orleans, the book will no doubt be read with considerable interest and will be kept as a reference.

When he died in 1933, James J. "Gentleman Jim" Corbett was honored by two distinguished groups of people: the professional boxing public, who celebrated him as America's greatest boxing champion, and the world of popular theater admirers, who revered him as one of Broadway's top vaudeville headliners. Corbett was uniquely instrumental in making boxing and popular theater both justifiable commercial enterprises, to be enjoyed by all classes of people. He became America's first national sports hero and went on to formulate the theater world's star system. This is the first definitive biography of the man who knocked out heavyweight champion John L. Sullivan, and who also knocked out audiences who flocked to see him in vaudeville and silent pictures. The focus herein is on the real man, the influences on his life, and the social and commercial environment within which he functioned. The author reveals that Corbett was a complex, driven, enigmatic man whose dedicated participation in popular entertainment changed American social values and mores, and at the same time reinvented the notion of a national hero.
