Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 1951, and rejected at the time by one NHL coach as “the product of a three-year-old mind,” Lloyd Percival’sThe Hockey Handbookwent on to become an internationally recognized classic. Russian and European coaches seized on the book as the first authoritative, analytical treatment of hockey fundamentals and based their training regimes on the principles Percival described. The father of Russian hockey, Anatoli Tarasov, wrote to Percival: “Your wonderful book which introduced us to the mysteries of Canadian hockey, I have read like a schoolboy.” Now, nearly half a century later,The Hockey Handbookremains in a class by itself. It is the first book required by players or coaches at all levels of proficiency who are setting out to develop their own or their team’s hockey skills. Wayne Major, Larry Sadler, and Robert Thom are all experienced amateur hockey coaches who came to appreciate the practical value of Percival’s pioneering work. In revising the text, they drew upon the expertise of a variety of specialists, including, for example, Dr. Tom Sawa, who updated the chapter on training and conditioning, to giveThe Hockey Handbooka new relevance to modern hockey coaches. Now redesigned and issued in an easy-to-use format, the book will serve as an inspiration and guide to future generations of players and coaches.

Book excerpt: The true story of the 1980 U.S. Olympic hockey team and the Miracle on Ice, which Sports Illustrated called the greatest moment in sports history—with a new afterword by Ken Morrow for the fortieth anniversary of the Miracle on Ice “An unvarnished and captivating read.”—Parade Once upon a time, they taught us to believe. They were the 1980 U.S. Olympic hockey team, a blue-collar bunch led by an unconventional coach. Their “Miracle on Ice” has become a national fairy tale, but the real Cinderella story is even more remarkable. Wayne Coffey casts a fresh eye on this seminal sports event, giving readers an ice-level view of the amateurs who took on a Russian hockey juggernaut at the height of the Cold War. He details the unusual chemistry of the Americans—formulated by their fiercely determined coach, Herb Brooks—and seamlessly weaves portraits of the boys with the fluid action of the game itself. Coffey also traces the paths of the players and coaches since their stunning victory, examining how the Olympic events affected their lives. Told with warmth and an uncanny eye for detail, The Boys of Winter is an intimate, perceptive portrayal of one Friday night in Lake Placid and the enduring power of the extraordinary.

Download or read book The Puck Starts Here written by Garth Vaughan and published by Fredericton, N.B. : Goose Lane Editions. This book was released on 1996 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Want to start a fight? Just ask where hockey was invented. In The Puck Starts Here, Garth Vaughan traces the origin of Canada's great winter game, not to Montreal (where "the first hockey game" was played in 1875), not to Kingston (where Queen's University and Royal Military College played "the first hockey game" in 1886), but to Windsor, Nova Scotia, around 1800. Vaughan is not speculating. According to Thomas Chandler Haliburton, as early as 1800, the local version of "He shoots! He scores!" echoed over Windsor's frozen ponds as the boys of King's College School furiously hit a slice from a stick of stove wood towards the opponents' goal with their "hurley" sticks. Soon the youth of Halifax and Dartmouth and the soldiers in the garrisons took up the new sport. By century's end, hockey had spread across Canada, and Lord Stanley had donated his famous cup. The Puck Starts Here begins with hockey's origin, but Vaughan goes on to show how early equipment developed into the recognizably modern gear of the 1930s. He also explains that, although the Mi'kmaq of Nova Scotia made the best hornbeam hockey sticks, they were not welcome on town teams; neither were Blacks or women. So they started their own hockey leagues, which were going strong by 1900. This easy-to-read book is illustrated with over 200 pictures -- engravings and paintings from the early 1800s, archival and press photos, snapshots, and advertisements. The Puck Starts Here makes thrilling reading for every hockey enthusiast. A retired surgeon and a native of Windsor, Garth Vaughan has lived and breathed hockey since boyhood. He found more than enough material in libraries in Nova Scotia, at Harvard, at Queen's Universityand Royal Military College, and in the National Archives of Canada to prove that his hometown is truly the source of Canada's winter obsession.
