For readers who remember that vivid triumph of the American spirit and want to read about it; for readers interested in hockey or the Olympic Games; for readers of literary nonfiction about sports.
A thoroughly reported and evocative account of 1980 USA/U.S.S.R "Miracle on Ice" hockey game; a narrative that braids a chronicle of the improbable victory of amateur Americans over Russian all-stars with the untold stories of these Olympic icons, their Soviet opponents, and the forces that brought them together.
