Download The Boys of Winter: The Untold Story of a Coach, a Dream, and the 1980 U.S. Olympic Hockey Team AudioBook Free
Once upon a time, they trained us to trust. These were the 1980 US Olympic hockey team, a blue-collar bunch led by an unconventional trainer, and they made perhaps the ideal sports instant of the 20th century. Their "Miracle on Snow" has turned into a national story book, but the real Cinderella account is even more impressive. It really is a legacy of wish, hard work, and homegrown triumph. It really is a chronicle of every day heroes who just wanted to play hockey happily ever after. It really is still unbelievable. The Children of Winter is an evocative consideration of the improbable American excitement in Lake Placid, NY. Drawing on hundreds of hours of interviews, Wayne Coffey explores the untold tales of the united states upstarts, their Soviet opponents, and the forces that brought them together.
