By: John L. Barbella

 

About the Book

The story of the Legendary American boxer, Al “Bummy” Davis, was cut short all too soon on the night of November 21, 1945. While drinking in a bar, a group of men entered the establishment with something more than booze on their minds. The group had already robbed other establishments that night, but this would be their last stop. In the end, Bummy Davis would be lying outside, dead. But who killed him?

                Who Killed Bummy Davis? is a history and an account of the life, career, and tragic death of a talented boxer whose career and life ended suddenly, leaving many unanswered questions. Learn about the history of boxing, gangs, and turf wars during this tumultuous time in New York City, and maybe an answer to who killed Al "Bummy" Davis.
