Book Description Soft cover. Condition: Good. 2nd Edition. A tight and unmarked copy-" A Wild Look at Life in Hockey.To millions of Canadians, Don "Grapes" Cherry is the irascible co-host of "Molson Hockey Night's Coach's Corner," whose controversial, candid and highly spirited commentary has endeared him to hockey fans throughout the provinces. A larger-than-life figure in the annals of hockey, Cherry has done it all-from minor league player to head coach of the Boston Bruins to gregarious commentator. His is a story that only he could tell-because no one else could do him justice. BY THE MAN WHO'S SEEN IT ALL! Favorite of the fans, players and press, Cherry takes you battling through the bush leagues, where the stick-swinging defenseman put up with the bus rides and burgers-while the NHL live like kings. You'll relive his glory days in Boston, where he clicked as coach until the Bruins blew the Stanley Cup-and Cherry got blamed. You'll find out why he had to say :no" to teh dream chance of coaching the Maple leafs. You'll meet players like Bobby Orr and Wayne Gretzky.the managers and owners who blackballed him.and Blue, the white bull terrier reputedly the brains behind his coaching success. Undoubtedly the most colorful character who ever laced up a pair of skates, Cherry offers a no-holes-barred account of his triumphs, his defeats and his remarkable comeback.- Don Cherry was born 1934 in Kingston, Ontario Canada. He left home at 15 to pursue his hockey dreams. In 1952 he won the Memorial Cup while playing for the Barrie Flyers. He then played pro for 18 years, in every league in existence at the time, while winning Championships in both the WHL and the AHL. After retirement, he turned to coaching where he won Coach of the Year in both the AHL and the NHL. At one time while coaching the Colorado Rockies he was the highest paid coach in the NHL. When his coaching career came to an end he turned his focus to TV and Coachs Corner was born in 1985 on HNIC. He also had his own TV show The Grapevine Show which he hosted weekly with numerous star athletes. At around the same time a chain of his restaurants came into existence, and today there are about 18 of them across Canada. His radio show Grapeline is Canadas longest running syndicated show on the radio and still going strong. His Rockem Sockem DVDs is Canadas all-time best selling non-theatrical collection of DVDs, soon celebrating its 30th Anniversary. He once owned an OHL team in Mississauga, had 2 TV movies made about his life, plus voted Canadas 7th All-time Greatest Canadian. Founder of both Rose Cherrys Home for Kids and Don Cherrys Pet Rescue Foundation, his past charities that he supports with his time and in their fund raising efforts, is too numerous to list. Within all these accomplishments, he has written 5 top ten selling books. All give an insight on what makes this man tick, plus gives his readers an inside look at hockey. His books are written in the way he speaks. Candid, honest, quick, and short, or you could say, in his own words.-Two pages have dog ears. Seller Inventory # 018951
