Reinhard Kleist brings the gritty, horrific world of combat sport in the German death camps to life in The Boxer: The True Story of Holocaust Survivor Harry Haft. Originally serialized in Germany by Frankfurter Allgmeine Zeitung, The Boxer brings intimate, accessible, and sickening Holocaust history to a new generation of German readers, and following numerous international awards and translations, to a global audience.
This graphic biography draws heavily from Alan Scott Haft’s biography of his father, and fittingly opens in a prologue between the two of them, with Harry proclaiming, “One day I’ll tell you everything.” The first part of the story takes the reader on the harrowing journey from the Jewish Ghetto in Nazi occupied Bełchatów to Auschwitz, and the inhumanity of the Nazi death camps. A young Haft is marked out as a survivor by Schneider, a member of the SS who recruits him to box in illicit death matches for the entertainment of the Nazi guards.

ROCKY MEETS OUR HEAVIES – ROCKY MARCIANO, LONDON 1965 | EXCLUSIVE LIMITED EDITION PHOTOGRAPH
Description
An exclusive limited edition photograph by Photojournalist Arthur Steel.
British heavyweight boxers Don Cockell, Jack Peterson, Jo Erskine, Henry Cooper, Jack Gardner, Len Harvey & Tommy Farr honour American heavyweight boxer Rocky Marciano at The Hilton Hotel, London 1965.
Arthur recalls: “I was on a late shift and the picture editor asked me to cover a black tie dinner at The Hilton Hotel in London where the Anglo-American Sporting Club were hosting a dinner honouring the American heavyweight boxer Rocky Marciano. I remember walking along the hotel corridor on route to the special suite when I met a solitary lone figure sitting outside a set of plush doors. Incredibly, it was Rocky Marciano himself waiting to be called in and be introduced to the British Boxers. We chatted for quite a while, comparing broken noses (mine was broken by the school bully, who I unfortunately ran into one morning whilst on my paper round). Eventually, the doors opened and I followed him in. I had no preconceived idea for ‘The Ring’ picture but surrounded by all these boxers gave me a sudden inspiration. After taking a safety shot of the guys standing together I laid on t
