{"product_id":"braddock-the-rise-of-the-cinderella-man-9781596091436","title":"Braddock: The Rise Of The Cinderella Man","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe only available biography of a boxing legend.  James J. Braddocks nickname-the Cinderella Man-was an understatement. His rise from hard-luck  bottom-rung local slugger to heavyweight champion of the world is still regarded as one of the greatest true-life triumphs in the history of sport. Here  published to coincide with the release of Ron Howards film Cinderella Man  starring Russell Crowe  is the story of a man who saw that the odds were against him-so he stepped into the ring and beat them.  From his rise through the ranks as a promising young pro and his heartbreaking decision defeat at the hands of champion Tommy Loughran to the hard times after the stock market crash-when he could barely support his family-and his miraculous win over heavyweight champ Max Baer in 1935  Braddocks life is a moving underdog story. He once inspired a depression-era America that had lost all hope  and today  his story will captivate readers with its blend of the history of a sport and an era with the biography of a champion in the ring and in life.  Universal\/Miramax will release the major motion picture Cinderella Man in spring 2005. Russell Crowe will star  Ron Howard will direct.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45792228016181,"sku":"ByrdShop_1596091436","price":65.44,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9781596091436.jpg?v=1784745883","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/braddock-the-rise-of-the-cinderella-man-9781596091436","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
