An anthology of short boxing articles from those the author; Lawrenece Yearsley submitted to the Manchester Ex-Boxers Association for inclusion in their monthly newsletter. They are all (so I have been informed, ) both interesting and informative, and appeal to boxing and non-boxing fans alike. The articles range from the old bare knuckle era right up to the present day. As all boxing fans know, the world of boxing is hugely manifold, and hopefully so are these articles. They do not adhere to just one theme and cover a variety of subjects from the origin of the term, 'Boxing Fan, ' to the low-down on historic boxing venue
