Review of When We Were Kings (1996) by Reece Pendleton for Chicago Reader — 14 Jun 2002
Gast does a nice job of building the suspense leading up to the fight, fleshing out the story with some good color commentary by a handful of people (filmed by director Taylor Hackford, who wisely convinced Gast that these reminiscences and remarks would fill in some historical gaps).
