He was one of the greatest heavyweight boxers to enter the legendary squared circle during the Golden Age of Boxing. Standing a mere 5' 8," Sailor Tom Sharkey was one of boxing's most feared sluggers; Gentleman Jim Corbett, Bob Fitzsimmons, Kid McCoy, and Jim Jeffries all agreed he was their fiercest opponent and gave them their toughest fights. A colorful boxer both in the ring and out, he retired in 1904 after several legendary and controversial failed attempts to win the championship belt. That's the story you know. But it's not the end of Sharkey's story. Not by a long shot In the tradition of Robert E. Howard's humorous sailor Steve Costigan boxing tales, this action-packed collection of rowdy, bawdy burlesque feature Sailor Tom Sharkey after he hung up his professional gloves. Thrill to Sharkey's brush with Hollywood's "It" Girl, Clara Bow Get Chills as Sharkey and Kid McCoy face down a maniacal bandit Feel the heat as Sharkey rides the rails with Jim Jeffries and in the Vaudeville carnival into clashes with mad scientists and mummified menaces Watch Sharkey play Santa Claus to a bunch of Tammany Hall orphans and end up with a tiger by the tail-literally And much more
