“During the depression, people fought each other for boxes of groceries and if you were lucky you might get a few shillings for fighting six rounds. When Jack Johnson was World Heavyweight Champ, back in the early 1900s, Hartlepool had a brilliant boxer called Jasper Carter. People today will never have heard of him, but almost 100 years ago he put Hartlepool on the fistic map.”

Stephen Richards is an author who writes in the self-help genre. His first book, published in 1998, was a true crime title for Mirage Publishing. He has since worked with other writers as well, and his later focus has shifted toward mind, body, and spirit subjects. He is especially associated with books on Cosmic Ordering and mind power. His work moves from true crime into self-help and related spiritual and personal development topics, reflecting that change in focus.
