This book is "Chicken Soup" for the Ranger fanatic. It is loaded with history, but is not overwhelming. It gives you what you want. Some of the stories are pretty hilarious.

I gave this book to my husband, for Christmas, the year it was released. He only mentioned wanting it about every five minutes, from the time he first heard about it! If someone you love is a Ranger fanatic, this is the ultimate gift(I've come to love it, myself)I actually had to disguise it when I wrapped it up, and put it under the tree; he wanted it that bad! We weren't disappointed, and you won't be either! There is a lot of heart in this book. I only hope they update it, at least once a decade.

If you have "Ranger-blue" pumping through your veins, or if you know someone who does, then this is the book to get. Anything you could possibly want to know about "the classiest team in hockey" is in here. Player profiles, stories, history, and enough stats to make an accountant drool, you name it--it's here. The book is easy to read and entertaining. You can read it from cover to cover or you can jump around to read about your favorite Blueshirts season. Simply put, a must have for any Rangers fan!
