I'm an avid reader and have been especially about the Habs. The question I'd like to ask is that has there been a book written about Sam Pollock and if not then is there a Habs book that has a lot about Pollock and what he did. The majority of the books I have read focus mainly on the 50s part of the Habs whereas I am more interested in the 70s, thanks.

An outstanding book on the history of The Habs is "Lions In Winter" by Chris Goyens and Allan Turowetz. It devotes several chapters to Sam Pollock and the teams of the seventies. My copy is older and comes to an end after the 1986 Stanley Cup, but I belive there is a revised edition avaliable that carries on untill the early 90's. There is also Guy Lafleurs autobiography "Flower". Hope this helps. |

Read "Lions in Winter" ...good book
Also read Dryden's "The Game" ...... he should stick to talking about hockey ..... he writes like he speaks .... dully. Although I made it through it .... so it mustn't have been that bad. I enjoyed all the dressing room talk stuff and the church references for curses.

Gotta admit the Game was a little dry. Dick Irvin brings a more folksy way of telling stories and I thought Robinson for the Defence was an honest account of Larry's career
