Charles McGrath (in \u003ci\u003eThe New York Times Book Review\u003c\/i\u003e) praised it as \"a judicious sampling-a useful window on Liebling's vast body of writing and a reminder, to those lucky enough to have read him the first time around, of why he was so beloved.\" Today Liebling is best known as a celebrant of the \"sweet science\" of boxing, and as a \"feeder\" who ravishes the reader with his descriptions of food and wine. But as David Remnick observes in his fond and insightful introduction, Liebling is \"boundlessly curious, a listener, a boulevardier, a man of appetites and sympathy\"-and a writer who, with his great friend and colleague Joseph Mitchell, deftly traversed the boundaries between reporting and storytelling, between news and art.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eA.
