Henry Cooper: An Autobiography chronicles the remarkable life of 'Our 'Enry' in his own words — from his working-class roots in South London and his formative years in the amateur boxing circuit, through his legendary professional career, his three British Heavyweight Championship reigns, and his iconic encounters on the world stage.\n\nWritten with disarming candour and warmth, the narrative presents a portrait of a man as celebrated for his sportsmanship and gentlemanly character as for his devastating left hook — famously dubbed 'Enry's 'Ammer. Cooper illustrates the grit, sacrifice, and camaraderie that defined mid-twentieth-century British boxing, while offering an intimate glimpse into a life lived with extraordinary dignity both inside and outside the ring. A cornerstone of British sporting literature, this autobiography leaves the reader wondering: what might have been, had fate and a torn glove not intervened on that unforgettable night in 1963?\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49203258196187,"sku":"2026200015684-SECONDHAND","price":10.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/350b4004-23c0-4f5e-a889-79b1b45d76b1.png?v=1788146625","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026200015684-secondhand-henry-cooper-an-autobiography","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
