A GOOD LOOK AT BOBBY HULL

THIS BOOK DOES A GOOD JOB DESCRIBING THE CAREER OF THE GOLDEN JET. IT LACKS GREAT DETAIL BUT MAKES UP FOR IT WITH SOME GOOD INTERVIEWS, PICTURES AND ALOT OF FACTS I DIDN'T KNOW ABOUT BOBBY'S PRIVATE LIFE. A MUST READ FOR FANS OF THE GOLDEN JET AND THOSE WHO LOVE HOCKEY. THE AUTHOR CRAIG MACINNIS GETS A HAT TRICK FOR THIS SIMPLE BUT ENTERTAINING READ.

MacInnis Does it Again

The "Remembering..." series transcends normal biography by showcasing top quality journalist's recollections with statistics and insights into the player and their game. Remembering the Golden Jet is no different. From Bobby Hull's early days playing minor hockey, to his watershed defection from the NHL to play for Winnipeg, a move that would rock the hockey world and force the league to re-evaluate it's salary policy forever.For Blackhawks fans this book charts the progress of a player who was feared by goalies everywhere for his blistering slapshot. I have read every Bobby Hull book out there, and nothing comes close in it's insights, in it's recognition of Hull as a true Legend of the game, as this beautifully designed book.I can't recommend it highly enough.
