Primo: The Story of 'Man Mountain' Carnera

Rating:
Summary: Clears up a lot of deceptions and misconceptions about Primo
Review: Mullally's book is an easy read for any fan of the sweet science. He unveils the shroud of mystery behind one of the lesser known but celebrated heavyweight champions of the world. From his early days as an unknowing puppet fighter for the mob and reluctant symbol for Italian fascism the author drives across Primo's naivete and humanity. I liked it because it clears up a lot of deceptions and misconceptions about a mediocre fighter with a gigantic personality.
