The Boys of Dunbar - Read or Listen to the book you won't be dissapointed

SLAM 5 Star - Ali wrote many of the columns in the magazine. The Mugsy story alone is worth purchase.

Baltimore Boys - The documentary covers some of the stories from the book but is more of an extension of the subject matter.
