One of the greatest sports figures of all time, Bibby Orr, breaks his silence in Orr, a memoir as unique as the man himself.
Bobby Orr’s life goes far deeper than Stanley Cup rings, trophies and recognitions. His story is not only about the game, but also the age in which it was played. It’s the story of a small-town kid who came to define its highs and lows, and inevitably it is a story of the lessons he learned along the way.
“A reflection on the nostalgia of playing hockey on frozen ponds growing up in Parry Sound, Ontario, the physical and emotional pain of knee injuries that cut his career short, and the off-ice struggles that the legendary Boston Bruins defenceman hasn’t talked much about. Orr is a how-to book by a grandparent about how parents, coaches, and children should approach the sport.” -- The Canadian Press
