The Jimmy DeForest Boxing Course is a comprehensive six-volume correspondence training program developed by legendary boxing trainer Jimmy DeForest during the late 1920s. Designed as a structured twenty-week course, the series guides students from fundamental boxing principles to advanced offensive and defensive techniques through progressive lessons, illustrated demonstrations, conditioning exercises, roadwork, diet recommendations, and personalized training regimens. Drawing on DeForest’s experience training world champions such as Jack Dempsey, Joe Gans, and Benny Leonard, the course offers a rare glimpse into the methods used by one of boxing’s most influential trainers. Today, the complete set serves as an important historical resource documenting early twentieth-century boxing instruction, physical culture, and correspondence education.
