From Word of Sport:

A consummate history of the Boston Bruins, researched and produced by one of Canada's most prolific and admired hockey writers. From the first Stanley Cup win in 1929 to the days of the Big Bad Bruins in the 1970s, this fascinating account delves behind-the-scenes of Beantown's fabled franchise.

From the Publisher:

From their first Stanley Cup win in 1929 to their tough, "lunch bucket" days in the '70s, to their recent resurgence with young stars such as Joe Thornton and Sergei Samsonov, the Boston Bruins have remained one of hockey's (and sport's) greatest teams. Brian McFarlane, Canada's favorite hockey chronicler, invites readers to relive many of the treasured memories of the Bruins with stories of Eddie Shore, Phil Esposito, Milt Schmidt, Don Cherry, Derek Sanderson, Ray Bourque, and Number Four, Bobby Orr. Read about the superstar who almost didn't make the NHL, the coach who preached his views on sex to the players' wives, and the flamboyant young Bruin who dated a grandmother.
