This lively and comprehensive volume begins with the first games resembling ice hockey, played on the frozen lakes of Europe and North America, and traces the game's development to the dazzling speed and puck-handling that characterize the game today. From the first Stanley Cup playoff in 1892 through the growth of the Pacific Coast Hockey Association, the proliferation of boom town hockey, the birth of the NHL, the evolution of the All-Star game, the advent of international competition, and the rival leagues to the expansion teams, this illustrated volume tells the story of hockey.
