It has been said that more books have been written about Muhammad Ali than
anyone in the world. However, not one has ever had the emotional impact and
historical bearing that this new book has to offer. AT HOME WITH MUHAMMAD ALI is
a unique mixture of narrative stories and transcriptions of Muhammad
Ali's personal home recordings. Through audio journals, love letters and
cherished memories, Hana tells the story of a very typical and yet fully-unique
family – the rise and fall of her parent's marriage and the struggles they
faced as a family surrounding Ali's loss to Larry Holmes in 1980. AT HOME WITH
MUHAMMAD ALI offers a candid look at a man who was trying to find his purpose in
the world as he realized he was coming to the end of his lucrative boxing
career, all the while trying to balance fatherhood and his worldly and political
obligations. In AT HOME WITH MUHAMMAD ALI Hana will share the everyday
adventures that the family experienced around the house (so ‘normal’ and yet
not, with visitors like Michael Jackson and Clint Eastwood dropping by). And for
the first time, Hana's mother Veronica will share her memories of the 12-year
relationship with Muhammad.Candid and revealing, AT HOME WITH MUHAMMAD ALI is
more than a family memoir, it's an intimate portrait of a legend, and a final
love letter from a daughter to her father which is certain to become an
essential contribution to Ali's legacy.
