This review is from: Proud Past, Bright Future: One Hundred Years of Canadian Women's Hockey (Hardcover)

I read this book about 4 years ago and found it in my college library which really surprised me since I live in Nevada and this isn't exactly a hockey hotbed. I thought it was great and since I'm both a hockey nut and a history nerd, this was great to read. The only minor issue I have with it was towards the end when it turned into Team Canada kicks [tail]! Since I was reading this after the USA women won the very first women's Olympic hockey gold, this was a bit of an issue. I thought it was great to learn about how women have been playing the game as long as the men and that Lord Stanely's daughters even tried their hands at it. Would highly recommend this to anyone interested in hockey, sports history, and women's sports. Love the pictures too!
