Book Reviews of Hockey for Dummies
Book Review: Hockey for everyone!
Summary: 5 Stars
Hockey for Dummies is the most comprehensive guide to the sport that I have ever read. Outstanding insight and thought by the author JD who knows the game inside and out, provides accurate and in-depth commentary about the sport. If you're just learning or want to learn about the fast and furious sport of Hockey, this book is a must. I keep mine next to the television remote during games to refer to the rules and plays section! Game ON!Book Review: A reference for the rookie and veteran alike
Summary: 5 Stars
When the NHL arrived in Arizona two years ago with the Phoenix Coyotes, I had the chance to attend a few games and was immediately HOOKED. Looking to learn more about what I am now convinced is the greatest sport ever invented I chose this book. I already knew the DUMMIES series from their excellent software guides and figured they'd be just as comprehensive here. I was not disappointed. HOCKEY FOR DUMMIES is now my hockey Bible. It includes sections on the history of the game, the rules, the equipment, coaching and training techniques, and advice on playing from the likes of Wayne Gretzky and Brian Leetch among others. Also included are profiles of the players past and present who have made the game: the famous (coaches, goal-scorers, goaltenders) and the infamous ("pests," "enforcers" and others.) There's even a section on fights and hitting which has helped me understand and at least respect that aspect of the game, even though I still don't care ! for it. HOCKEY FOR DUMMIES is a great introduction for the rookie hockey fan and an indespensable reference for the veteran.Book Review: This book rocks!!!!

I have been a hockey fan for about 2 years, and when I heard about this book, I had to get it. It took me a while, but when I finally got it, I was not disappointed!!! Hockey for Dummies is an excellent book! It gives an in-depth look at the game, and is very understandable. It was also of great use to me because I have been thinking of learning the great and excellent sport of hockey, and this book tells me basically everything I need to know. I would recommend this book for anyone!!!Book Review: disliked
