Muhammad Ali: His Life and Times is a biography of the boxer Muhammad Ali, written in 1991 by Thomas Hauser. It won the William Hill Sports Book of the Year award in that year. Critical reception Entertainment Weekly called the book "lovingly compiled and exhaustively researched," writing that "it’s a solid, respectful, drably written piece of work-in other words, it suggests none of the spontaneity and brashness that attracted us to Ali in the first place." Kirkus Reviews called it "a detailed, if hagiographic, account of Ali's public career and private life."
