Review:
As a fairly new-ish hockey (and Habs) fan, this book almost felt like an essential read. Jim Barber is a master of words. I have read a ton of sports biographies and stories, none of which were quite as entertaining to read as this one. He gives you reasons to be excited about the players, the team, and the history behind it.
The book focuses on about 7-10 key players throughout the Montreal Canadiens history, as well as giving a short intro as to how they became a team (one of the first 6 in the NHL). A nice little overview for those wanting to delve deeper into their Habs fandom, or for the newbies, like myself.
10/10 would bang. I mean...recommend.
