Hockey may be Canada`s game, but curling is Canada`s life. Brought over from Scotland with the 78th Fraser Highlanders, the sport of curling has alleviated many seemingly endless winters, from 1759 to present day. Today, over one million people in Canada are curlers, and Canada boasts more curling world championships and trophies than any other country in the world. Book is in very good condition, looks to be hardly read. Black and White photos throughout. Wonderful gift idea for the Canadian Hockey, Curling Sports person or add to your own library.
