The Boxing Puzzle Book

Description

Step through boxing history one puzzle at a time.

The Boxing Puzzle Book combines 100 original word searches with short historical stories and Ringside Questions drawn from the people, places, rivalries and traditions that shaped the sport.

Across ten rounds, the book travels from the language of the gym and the bare-knuckle prize ring to heavyweight champions, the great divisions, famous rivalries, British and Irish boxing, legendary venues and gyms, international boxing cultures, the Olympic Games and the pioneers of women’s boxing.

Every puzzle contains:

• An original boxing-history introduction

• 18 hidden boxing terms

• A 16 × 16 word-search grid

• A Ringside Question

• Three difficulty levels — Contender, Champion and Hall of Fame

• Solutions and trivia answers at the back

This is not simply a generic word-search book with boxing names dropped into the grids. It was built as a boxing book that happens to contain puzzles — researched for readers who know the sport and designed to reward those who want to know it better.

100 puzzles. 1,800 hidden terms. Ten rounds of boxing history.
