Review "I really enjoyed this book. Even though Im far from a hockey novice, I learned quite a bit that I didnt know about the history of the game, as well as interesting aspects of the equipment. This book is well written, and the authors do a great job of bringing the game to life through fascinating player and coach stories. The book expands beyond the NHL by discussing hockey leagues in other countries, as well as women and minorities throughout hockey history. Very entertaining." by D. Buxman ----- "If youre just getting interested in hockey, and youre beginning to watch it on TV listen to it on the radio, this is a good starter book to have. It tells you a brief history, let you know about the rules, explains the international scope of the game, and tells you many of the greatest players to play in North America. The book is very informative, written well and fun to read." by Marty ----- "Where I come from Hockey is the biggest sport so I just had to get this one. It did not let me down!
