Was ever a British boxer so loved by so many millions as Henry Cooper? The boxing fans adore him for the famous left hook called "Enery's 'ammer", for putting Cassius Clay on the floor, for never giving up, for being a British Heavy-weight good enough to take on the world. But Henry's fans include housewives who don't know a jab from an uppercut, their husbands and children, eminent statesmen, maiden ladies who think boxing "degrading", the entire population of Eton College, the Arsenal Football Club, the Royal Family—and all the rest of us.Henry's warm-hearted, highly entertaining autobiography will delight the millions who have a firm place in their respect and affection for the gentle giant whose humour, dignity, courage and boxing skill brought honour to his sport and pride to his countrymen. In a very special sense, Henry Cooper was, is, and always will be Our Enery.
