Tony Hand: A Life In British Ice Hockey

Tony Hand is the first British-born ice hockey player to be drafted into the Nhl and the finest ever to grace these shores. In his own words, Tony takes the reader through his life from winning and losing at Wembley to the highs and lows with the Gb national team, his clubs and players. Find out why he didn't stick with Edmonton in the Nhl, what really happens on a European tour and why he was banned for taking a cold remedy. Tony pulls no punches in describing his time in ice hockey and outlining how the sport should move forward.

Tony Hand is probably the best British ice hockey player of all time and I was really looking forward to reading this but, whilst it was a good review of Hand's playing career, as an autobiography I felt it lacked some of the personal insights and just seemed to skirt around the reason he turned down a chance to play in the NHL.

Certainly a good book for anyone interested in Hand's hockey career but somewhat lacking as a personal autobiography.
