Front Jacket Excerpt: "Gordie Howe had been scoring goals in the National Hockey League when Joe Louis was heavyweight champion; when Joe DiMaggio player center field for the Yankees; when Johnny Lujack was still winning them for the Gipper; when Betty Grable was the highest salaried woman in the world; and Ernest Hemmingway was holed up in Havana, writing The Old Man And The Sea. And twenty-odd years later, Gordie is still scoring goals. He is in Houston, Texas where ice is someting people think of in terms of tall glasses and maraschino cherries. Gordie came out of retirement to play on the same team with two of his sons, Mark and Marty. In My Three Hockey Players, Colleen describes how the sport has changed, from the lean years when her husband broke in to the years of exploding riches when her sons signed. She covers the good and the bitter times, the long seperations, the pressures-from management, fans, and other women. She comments on the cruelty of ice hockey and what should be done about it. Featured on the front cover is a 1974-75 action-photo of Gordie, Marty, and Mark Howe, together, wearing their white with blue trim, Houston Aeros, World Hockey Association uniforms.
