A Look At The 2010 Hockey Book Season

Another hockey season is almost upon us, and for book nerds like me that means another hockey book season is almost here. In fact, new hockey books are already hitting store shelves.

As many of you know my blogging time this time of year gets split up a bit, as I also run Hockey Book Reviews.com where I work with authors and publishers to promote their titles and give honest reviews for my readers.

There are some promising hockey books hitting stores soon. I thought now would be a good time to take a sneak peek.

Eddie Shore and that Old-Time Hockey - Michael Hiam takes a look at the life and times of the great Eddie Shore. In his heyday, "the Edmonton Express" was beloved by Boston Bruins fans and respected throughout the league for his exceptional skill on the ice as much as for his ferocity. Eddie Shore and That Old Time Hockey is an exciting and long-overdue biography of this hockey superstar.

The Day I (Almost) Killed Two Gretzkys: And Other Hits, Near Misses, and Off-the-Wall Stories About Sports, and Life - James Duthie is one of North America's most recognized hockey media personalities, as well as one of the most respected and personable commentators on the game, and one of the most prolific. Best known as the host of all TSN's NHL hockey broadcasts on The NHL on TSN and for his coverage of the World Junior Championships, James also has a strong following for his work in print, on TSN.ca and in the Ottawa Citizen. He has been writing columns about hockey, sport in general, and his own twisted view of the world for over a decade. This book is the first and only collection of some of his most popular and most controversial columns, as well as several brand new pieces never previously published.
