Essentially the last of the bare-knuckle heavyweight champions, John L. Sullivan was instrumental in the acceptance of gloved fighting. His charisma and popular appeal during this transitional period contributed greatly to making boxing a nationally popular, "legitimate" sport. Sullivan became boxing's first superstar and arguably the first of any sport. From his first match in the late 1870s through his final championship fight in 1892, this biography contains a thoroughly researched, detailed accounting of John L. Sullivan's boxing career. With special attention to the 1880s, the decade during which Sullivan came to prominence, it follows Sullivan's skill development and discusses his opponents and fights in detail, providing various viewpoints of a single event. Beginning with a discussion of early boxing practices, the sport itself is placed within sociological, legal and historical contexts including anti-prize fighting laws and the so-called "color line." A complete record of Sullivan's career is also included.

In this book one will find the blue print for the reversal of diabetes. One will also find an explanation of what diabetes is and why so many are struggling with it today. When beginning this journey it would be smart to have a well-trained medical doctor in your corner. They can appropriately guide you with the best way to discontinue medication. They can also monitor your progress and alert you in case of any complications along the way. Most individuals in our health care community are dedicated and caring. It is the medical establishment that should be distrusted. Those who mandate what are acceptable treatments, acceptable drugs, and acceptable diseases. Those that claim to use the latest in scientific research, while producing fraudulent studies hiding troubling data and ghost writing reviews in scientific journals. Yet, they readily point the finger at other health care providers as quacks and charlatans, while most of their medical procedures and drug therapies have little to no scientific basis, including heart bypass surgery. They ridicule nutritional approaches, while promoting drugs for off label purposes, receiving kickbacks, and falsely advertising drug dangers. They go about scaring people into believing the only way that they can be treated is through pharmaceuticals or surgery. These same individuals persecute anyone who dares challenge their view. Why should these organizations of deceit be the guardians of healthcare?There is another way, a better way: One that involves integrations of the healing arts, one that encourages debate, free thinking, and ideas. When this occurs miracles happen!

A New York Times Notable Book for 2011 One of Entertainment Weekly's Top 10 Nonfiction Books of the Year 2011 A Time Magazine Top 10 Nonfiction book of 2011 A Boston Globe Best Nonfiction Book of 2011 One of Library Journal's Best Books of 2011 A sharp-eyed, uniquely humane tour of America's cultural landscape—from high to low to lower than low—by the award-winning young star of the literary nonfiction world. In Pulphead, John Jeremiah Sullivan takes us on an exhilarating tour of our popular, unpopular, and at times completely forgotten culture. Simultaneously channeling the gonzo energy of Hunter S. Thompson and the wit and insight of Joan Didion, Sullivan shows us—with a laidback, erudite Southern charm that's all his own—how we really (no, really) live now. In his native Kentucky, Sullivan introduces us to Constantine Rafinesque, a nineteenth-century polymath genius who concocted a dense, fantastical prehistory of the New World. Back in modern times, Sullivan takes us to the Ozarks for a Christian rock festival; to Florida to meet the alumni and straggling refugees of MTV's Real World, who've generated their own self-perpetuating economy of minor celebrity; and all across the South on the trail of the blues. He takes us to Indiana to investigate the formative years of Michael Jackson and Axl Rose and then to the Gulf Coast in the wake of Katrina—and back again as its residents confront the BP oil spill. Gradually, a unifying narrative emerges, a story about this country that we've never heard told this way. It's like a fun-house hall-of-mirrors tour: Sullivan shows us who we are in ways we've never imagined to be true. Of course we don't know whether to laugh or cry when faced with this reflection—it's our inevitable sob-guffaws that attest to the power of Sullivan's work.
