Brian McFarlane

Hockey Hall of Famer and bestselling author Brian McFarlane sums up his passion for the game in a book every hockey fan should read. This is the true story of hockey as it has been played and reported for the last 40 years. For the first time, McFarlane shares his own story as a hockey insider. He goes behind the scenes of Hockey Night in Canada, telling us what it was like to work with Dave Hodge, Don Cherry, Dick Irvin, Danny Gallivan, and others. He reveals his many run-ins with the notorious Harold Ballard and recounts interviews with Gordie Howe, Wayne Gretzky, and dozens of other hockey greats (and not so greats). And, for the first time, McFarlane shares his childhood memories, including how his dad wrote the Hardy Boys books just to pay the bills, and how meeting legendary Leaf Syl Apps was the beginning of his own life in hockey.
