A propos de cet article

"Now, for the first time, {John} Gilbert offers impossibly colorful quotes issued by Brooks throiugh the years, recently gathered anecdotes and reflections from former players and colleagues, and his own first-person perspective to illuminate the people, experiences, and even the specific game situations that shaped Brooks' philosophies and methods. The result is a thoroughly unique and at times rollicking portrait of the man some have called the greatest hockey coach ever." This book has 320 pages and is illustrated throughout. The book is a SIGNED PRESENTATION copy from the author, John Gilbert. N° de réf. du vendeur 060932

Book by Gilbert John

Présentation de l'éditeur:

The U. S. hockey team’s victory at the 1980 Olympics was a “Miracle on Ice”--a miracle largely brought about by Herb Brooks, the legendary coach who forged that invincible team. Famously antagonistic toward the press at Lake Placid, Brooks nonetheless turned to sportswriter John Gilbert after each game, giving his longtime friend and confidant what became the most comprehensive coverage of the ’80 team. This book is Gilbert’s memoir of Brooks. Neither strictly biography or tell-all exposé, Herb Brooks: The Inside Story of a Hockey Mastermind is the story of an extraordinary man as it emerged in the course of a remarkable friendship.
