Summary
The Habs were the NHL gold standard for years, with 24 Stanley Cups and an almost unbroken line of stars, from Georges Vézina and Newsy Lalonde to Ken Dryden, Guy Lafleur, and Patrick Roy. Jenish traces not just the century-old… équipe des habitants, but the events of the day that affected hockey and the world away from it, including two world wars, the flu outbreak of 1918, and the Quiet Revolution of Quebec nationalism. Some descriptions of violence and some strong language. 2008.
