“At a publisher’s party in Los Angeles during a book fair, someone spotted King in the crowd. He dared me to go over and get his S-P – ‘You get Dante and Shakespeare and Muhammed Ali to do them for you, why don’t you ask somebody really famous?’ So I did, and this was the result. He was a really nice guy, and a Red Sox fan, to boot”. — Burt Britton
