~ Standard Hardcover
Enigmatic on and off the ice, the legend of Bobby Orr is one of the most enduring in all sport. Having redefined the defensive style of hockey, Orr was the first to infuse the defensive linesman position with offensive juice winning him three MVP awards and a Stanley Cup. History will also remember him as a victim in the Alan Eagleson scandal, and as the unfortunate player forced into early retirement due to injuries.
Searching for Bobby Orr gives readers a compelling and graceful look at the life and times of one of our greatest hockey players, as well as a revealing portrait of a game and a country in transition.
"A must-read for fans of hockey in the 1970s, Searching for Bobby Orr is an entertaining read that provides an overview of Orr's life from his childhood in Parry Sound to his rise to arguably one of the greatest hockey players to ever play the game." -- Goodreads
