The author index is good.... [Students] requiring the location of general information about blacks in the military could very easily begin with this bibliography.

.,."the work is skillfully organized with the researcher in mind. Davis moves from works by Louis to books and pamphlets about him, to newspaper and periodical articles. A helpful set of appendices includes, among other citaions, archival and dissertation/thesis references, a list of reviews of Louis's own books, and his ring record and earnings. As might be expected, the majority of this work is devoted to newspaper and periodical articles. Here the organization is quite imaginative, combining chronological and thematic approaches. ...this work will be of immense value to Louis researchers, both veteran scholars and undergraduate rookies."-Journal of Sport History
