Presentation of the book by Pierre :

Just before this year’s playoffs I have read this book as I could have gone to a pilgrimage.
No text just at all, a golden pleasure for the eyes. A blink, a flash on some very original hockey moments of glory, faith and devotion. The ice images has a lot of eloquence. The behind-the-scenes photographs are touching and full of life.

This book offers a meditative upportunity to go back to a glorious recent past just before this year’s excitement. I have seen that this book is half price and a portion from the sales goes to Hockey Fights Cancer.

The Bibliothèque Nationale de Québec has this book since March 2009. So as soon as I give it back you can read it next week-end in the new books section.

My appreciation : 9/10 a pure pleasure.
