1: A Good Read
I really enjoyed reading this book. The book is a compilation of short hockey stories throughout Cherry's life. It's narration style is great. It's easy to imagine that you are sitting back having a few beers as Cherry tells his story.

2: Oh boy what a memory
What a great read - if you haven't seen DC on the telly you dont know2 what you've missed!
Anyone who loves hockey will love this read.
Miss it and weep!

3: Like reading Coach's Corner
What I loved best about this book is that Don Cherry's "voice" shines through on every page. Reading the book felt just like listening to Don on Coach's Corner - outspoken, opinionated, and passionate. Cherry writes what it was like playing in the minors, shares stories of players past and current, as well as personal anecdotes of Hockey Night in Canada and the most famous hockey dog, his Blue. He isn't afraid to call out individuals by name for their behavior and admits some of his own mistakes as well. Love him or hate him, there's two things that can't be argued after reading this book - 1) Don is a proud Canadian who understands and appreciates his heritage and 2) Don Cherry loves the game of hockey. His love of the game comes through on every page.

4: A classic Canadian at his best
Love him or hate him, Don Cherry has been one of the most notable people in the NHL who isn't afraid to say it like it is. I remember him when he coached the Bruins and now on Hockey Night in Canada, he's just as opinionated. I don't mind someone who gives his/her opinion as long as they have the experience to back it up. Don Cherry is that man. He not only has the brains, but better yet, he is one of the strongest hearted people in the NHL today. Great book by a great man.
