On a chilly day in 1917, the National Hockey League was formed, and in the years since, it has been a mainstay of American sports. This illustrated reference delves deep into the history of the league to bring out essential information on all the top players, teams, and events. Visually exciting and information-packed, it's the work of an insider who not only looks at today's superstars, but offers a rare glimpse into legends of old-including a trip back to a game during World War II and the Soviet Union's powerhouse “Big Red Machine” teams.

Capturing the power, speed, and grace of professional hockey, the "Reflections" series is a fan-favorite for its comprehensive highlights of the year's best moments. Offering a pictorial chronicle of the 2008-09 season, this title covers the greatest victories from the first drop of the puck to the hoisting of the Stanley Cup.

Ferrari, the very sound of the name conjures up mental images of exciting and stylish sports cars being driven at great speed - add in the fabulous sound of the V8's exhaust and you are very close to motoring nirvana. With the arrival of the F355 - a descendant from the marvelous little Dino 246 - Ferrari was raising the stakes considerably in their quest for supremacy in their chosen market niche and sales of the F355 and its replacement, the 360 have risen dramatically. Not entirely coincidentally with this rise in popularity of the sports car side of the business has been Ferrari's dominance in the Formula One arena. With these mid-engine sports coupes Ferrari has also embraced new technology with electronic engine management, F1-style paddle shifts on the steering wheel, together with high-technology aluminum frame construction of the chassis all helping to give a storming performance that buyers of these sports car demand.

Chicago Bulls fans thought they had it so good. From 1991 through 1993 the Bull won three consecutive NBA titles behind the talents of Michael Jordan and Scottie Pippen. When Jordan retired in the fall of 1993, those fans thought the good times were over. In the fall of 1995, however, Jordan was ready to make a full return to NBA action. Pippen was still the best number two man in basketball, and then bad-boy Dennis Rodman was signed to join the franchise that had grown to hate him. Suddenly, the Bulls had the greatest team in NBA history. Bill Wennington's Tales from the Bulls Hardwood tells some of the inside stories from that team, the one that won three more NBA titles from 1996 through 1998. Seen from the eyes of three-time NBA champion center Bill Wennington, the Bulls come to life differently, from an insider's point of view.

Brunt reveals for the first time the true story behind the deal as well as Gretzky's important role in making it happen. At the press conference announcing the trade, Gretzky cried.
