Mendoza the Jew combines a graphic history with primary documentation and contextual information to explore issues of nationalism, identity, culture, and historical methodology through the life story of Daniel Mendoza. Mendoza was a poor Sephardic Jew from East London who became the boxing champion of Britain in 1789. As a Jew with limited means and a foreign-sounding name, Mendoza was an unlikely symbol of what many Britons considered to be their very own "national" sport.

The first full-length popular biography of one of the first boxing superstars. Mendoza transformed boxing from a mere brawl into the sweet science, and was a master manipulator of publicity and shaping public opinion. He exploited the anti-Semitic feelings of the day and in doing so raised the social profile of Jews in Great Britain.
