Summary: Educational and Strikingly Interesting Read
Review: The Annotated Rules of Hockey breaks down every rule in effect in the NHL and describes the events leading up to them. Being both fascinating and humorous, any fan of the game (or fans of any game) will love it. This book is a great way to learn about famous players, coaches, teams, officials, and rinks. It also offers detailed game photographs of penalties, fights, and goals, including hand signals. It's perfect for new fans, or long-time followers of hockey. I was very satisfied with the simplicity of the format, unlike other books describing the rules. It's a great way to impress your friends by telling them why we have things like blue lines in the greatest game on earth.
