Description
Luc doesn't like to fight. He wins his matches anyway. Men always turn out to see the Boy Giant box—he's taller and stronger than anyone else at the Woodrat Club. Luc takes part to help Mr. Chilton, the man who brought him to New York.
When a fast-talking stranger brings a kangaroo to the club, the Woodrat gains another attraction. The kangaroo boxing makes Luc queasy. But Mr. Chilton befriends the kangaroo owner. Soon Luc is torn between loyalty and his conscience. And if he makes a move, the kangaroo's mysterious trainer is ready to cut him down to size.
A Note From the Publisher
New York City. The 1870s. The gloves are off. Bareknuckle depicts a diverse group of bareknuckle boxers as they make their way in the Bowery neighborhood’s (fictional) Woodrat Club. Each title follows a different teenage lead as he overcomes adversity in and out of an underground New York fight club.
