Shooting For Glory
~ Paul Henderson with Mike Leonetti
Who doesn't remember the Summit Series of 1972?
That unbelievable hockey tournament between Team Canada and the USSR, or CCCP as their sweaters noted.
The drama of that first game loss in Montreal, the disgust after the Vancouver loss, then the first loss over in Moscow.
Followed by 3 successive victories with Paul Henderson scoring the winning goal in each.
This book was a story about that tourney, but also about how Paul survived the attention, then moved on into a Christian lifestyle.
To be honest, that didn't interest me!
There are a few photos, only 1 of the historic goal, otherwise, a way to pass an afternoon on the couch.
