What does it mean to be a warrior? What does it take to be the best? What must a man do to endure life's injustice, confront his own demons and prevail? Dominiquie Vandenberg could have been one of the highest ranked martial artists in the world. He could have been an Olympic wrestling champion, or earned a small fortune promoting his own line of sports merchandise. But all Vandenberg cared about was fighting all out with no holds barred, and when at sixteen years old he discovered Kunto, a Japanese all-out fighting style, Vandenberg left his home and family for training on Okinawa. Vandenberg, at eighteen, became the youngest man ever to win such the champion title in The World Open in Bare Knuckle Karate. But while on a break in his native Belgium he was hit by a runaway car a week before he was scheduled to leave for his next adventure. After a painful recovery, Vandenberg did what dead-ended men from around the world for a hundred years have done. He joined the French Foreign Legion. Vandenberg saw action in central Africa. But when his leg healed enough to allow him to fight again, he went AWOL, flew to Thailand and fought and won his first fighting match in years.After a brief return to the Legion to fulfil his contract, Vandenberg returned to Thailand to find his fiancee, whom he'd met while volunteering with the Karen insurgency against the Burmese National Army, murdered by Thai river pirates. The loss sent Vandenberg into a spiral of despair. After completing the rest of his Legion contract, he went back to Thailand for his final fight. Vandenberg fought and beat Kran, the legendary Northern Thai fighter. In a country where fighting is the national sport, Vandenberg had become the best.

Max Schmeling is the only living man who has had lengthy conversations with Franklin Delano Roosevelt, Pope Pius XII, Adolf Hitler, and Marlene Dietrich. World Heavyweight Champion from 1930 to 1932, Schmeling's riveting autobiography is finally made available in English translation after years as a best seller in Germany. Schmeling's story is one of a shy man of extremely humble origins who comes of age amidst the glitter and turbulence of Berlin's 'Golden Twenties'. His career inevitably brings him to America, where his incredible odyssey sweeps him into a constellation whose stars include Jack Dempsey, Gene Tunney, FDR, Al Capone, Clark Gable, and many more. But the most compelling chapters in Max Schmeling's American saga are those involving Joe Louis and the unlikely bond between the two men, a bond forged in two epic battles. Schmeling's story is also that of a decent man in conflict with himself and with the authorities and racial policies of Hitler's Third Reich. His personal interaction with Hitler offers a fascinating character study of the megalomaniac Fuhrer. Max Schmeling's story is also a love story -- a lifetime voyage with Czech actress Anny Ondra.It is a storybook romance which blossoms for two superstars in the best of times and a devotion which sustains two survivors of postwar Germany. This autobiography is fully annotated and contains numerous rare and archival photos, as well as an epilogue written by Max Schmeling expressly for this English-language edition. A rare and unforgettable slice of history from the 1920s to the 1950s.
