The Stakes were High follows the amazing life of "Glorious" John Gully, the butcher's boy from Bristol who first achieved fame as a bare-knuckle fighter and champion of England. No other boxer in the history of sports has had such an amazingly varied career. He amassed a huge fortune first as a successful bookmaker, gambler, and racehorse owner—and later MP. This is the fascinating story of his life.
