Editorial Review:
In the time I spent with these two legends, Ali and Schwarzenneger, I learned the secret to what makes a great champion. Ali and Schwarzenneger uniquely invoke this secret. It’s elegant in its simplicity and one of the most profound lessons I have ever learned. Arnold Schwarzenegger does not seem to be comparable to Muhammad Ali on the surface. But look closer. Both Ali and Schwarzenegger came from nowhere to win titles. Both men were great physical specimens, but later became known for their wit, humanity and crowd-pleasing nature...not merely for their brawn. And, of course, both men became known as two of the greatest icons of their time. They did it largely because they were both able to overcome stereotypes and false perceptions. They are champions, Titans of their generation, for one simple reason: It never occurred to them that they weren’t champions. These two men had an unprecedented awareness, a power within them, which expressed a winner. And, it was merely a matter of time before the rest of the world recognized them as champions. This is a black and white photo essay of Muhammad Ali and Arnold Schwarzenegger during their early years, training for their titles.
Titans: Muhammad Ali and Arnold Schwarzenegger Reviews:
Consider this book RECOMMENDED! 
2009-02-12 - This book is absolutely amazing. You expect wonderful images from Al Satterwhite, but the harmony and layout of this book create something all together sensational. The images themselves are stunning, warm-hearted and inspirational. Mr. Satterwhite juxtaposed the images perfectly, so that you see the similarities and differences between Muhammad Ali and Arnold Schwarzenegger, reminiscent of Robert Franks "The Americans". The book captures the spirit of both men, and one gets caught up and inspired by their personalities captured by Satterwhite. This book is a definite must for any collection.
Extraordinary photography of two warriors in their prime 
2009-02-10 - In this photographic essay of two of the greatest warriors in their fields, Al Satterwhite manages to capture images of Muhammad Ali and Arnold Schwarzenegger in their prime.
At first, this pairing may seem odd but both men have more in common than you think: Both Ali and Schwarzenegger came from nowhere to win titles; both were known for their wit and crowd-pleasing nature, and both men wer able to win over the public by overcoming stereotypes and false perceptions.
Titans gives readers a rare glimpse of these two icons on their path to achievement and what they had to go through to attain their goals.
