Produktinformationen "Scotty Davidson"
A neglected great of Canadian hockey finally gets his due.Scotty Davidson was a hard-living, hard-punching, and high-scoring athlete. He was also a Canadian hero twice over, as captain of the first Toronto team to win the Stanley Cup and a volunteer solider who fought bravely in the First World War. Yet most Canadians today do not know his name. And those who do are unlikely to know all the facts. Because as Matthew Walthert discovered when he began work on this first major biography of Davidson, most previous accounts, especially of his death on the Western Front, are wildly inaccurate.Walthert has scoured the archives, tracked down living relatives, and travelled to the sites of battles in France and Belgium to tell the authentic story of Scotty Davidson, vividly portray the winger's on-ice brilliance in the early days of the professional game, and establish the facts about his final moments. A narrative as authoritative as it is compelling and readable.
