Book Reviews of Hockey For Dummies
Book Review: It's a good book.
Summary: 4 Stars
Growing up in "winter country", my friends and I would often shovel-off some frozen pond out in the woods to skate and play a rather unorganized form of ice hockey. Now, I enjoy watching my grandson playing on a Mites team. However, I never really understood the game. What I have found, by reading this book, is that I now have enough information with which to talk hockey with my friends and get even more information on the sport from them. Going to professional and college hockey games is a real blast for me too, now that I understand more about the sport.Book Review: Know the rules
Summary: 5 Stars
Very informative book. Know the rules and you can enjoy the game even more!Book Review: New Hockey Mom
Summary: 5 Stars
I ordered this book for a good general overview as my son has chosen to play hockey when no one else in our family has ever played before. I found it to be a great source of information for a beginner family. Highly recommend this book.Book Review: No Longer a Dummy!
Summary: 4 Stars
Hockey For Dummies was incredibly helpful when my son began playing the sport and we ended up getting so hooked that we started attending collegiate as well as professional hockey games. Nothing like a bunch of new hockey moms inquiring, "what is icing?" to which another replies, "it's something you put on a cake."The book's format was very easy to follow, so no matter what you want to learn (penalties, history, etc.) you will be able to get a no-nonsense answer to your inquiry. Understanding something about the sport makes it much more enjoyable to watch. I was particularly impressed with the guidelines for watching the games in person versus the televised ones.
