Publisher Description
Hockey legend Bobby Orr tells his story, from his Ontario childhood to his years with the Bruins and Blackhawks to today in this New York Times bestselling sports memoir.
Bobby Orr is often referred to as the greatest defenseman ever to play the game of hockey. But all the brilliant achievements leave unsaid as much as they reveal. They don’t tell what inspired Orr, what drove him, what it was like for a shy small-town kid to suddenly land in the full glare of the media. They don’t tell what it was like when the agent he regarded as a brother betrayed him and left him in financial ruin. They don’t tell what he thinks of the game of hockey today.
Now he breaks his silence in a memoir as unique as the man himself....

Good book... Lots of info from Orr's early days.
Fast read, a must for any hockey fan; lots of insights and unknown facts. Orr provides some very good advice for parents and coaches of any sport.
Number 4
If you could create the ideal hockey player…..it would be Bobby Orr.
Orr
although he was my abosolute idol and i truly respect him i thought the book at times lacked any real substance.
Bobby Orr is simply too classy to write anything negative about teamates and friends and Im sure he could have said some pretty nasty things about the man who left him almost bankrupt
i enjoyed it mostly and any Orr fan will too however it will leave you asking more questions than answers.
