title: The Concise Encyclopedia of Hockey
author: Michael Carroll
description: This cornucopia of easy-to-use information covers everything associated with the game of hockey. Arranged alphabetically, the entries range from immortals like Gordie Howe and Wayne Gretzky to the Miracle on Ice (the improbable 1980 Olympic victory of the underdog U.S. team over the esteemed Soviet squad) to definitions of ice jargon such as cycling, long side, pipes, slewfooting, and spinnerama. The text is illustrated by 70 black-and-white photos, and appendixes list the winners of the Stanley Cup, Memorial Cup, NCAA, Olympics, and World Championships for men, women, and juniors. A detailed index provides easy access. Carroll is a natural to write this encyclopedia, having already edited 20 books on hockey. A welcome addition to the vast assortment of titles on the market.
