About this ebook
A Georgian romp of a story: of characters that are not all they seem, of rousing achievements and acclaim; a story of an unlikely friendship that is destroyed by disloyalty and ultimately by treachery and betrayal.
The year is 1785 and on a London street there is a chance encounter between two young men - John Campbell-John and Samuel Medina. One is a rogue and an impostor and the other a man of honour who wants to stand up and fight the world and and put right all the injustices he sees in it. With John as his mentor, Samuel is taken from his Jewish community and thrust into the degenerate world of 18th century London, where he sets out to sample all the sensual pleasures that Georgian society has to offer and jeopardises the achievement of his ultimate goal: to be the Boxing Champion of England.
The story of an unlikely hero; a man who becomes an acclaimed boxing champion, adored by the public from the highest to the lowest in the land; a man who is guided by his innate honesty and integrity to overcome prejudice and eventually find peace.
