Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. 1st Edition. 1st printing of the first Canadian hardcover edition SIGNED by the author with a blue ballpoint pen on the half-title page, and he added his nickname The Eagle in inverted commas. Full black paper with gold titles and white endpapers. A well-preserved copy pub…lished a few years before Eagleson was brought to justice on both sides of the border for racketeering, obstruction of justice, embezzlement and fraud. A tight copy with sharp corners. The jacket is bright, crisp and price intact. Light tanning to the top and bottom edges of the white flaps. Bobby Orr is the client who Eagleson defrauded most famously. Eagleson writes about it in two chapters entitled The Break with Orr - Part I and II. On pg. 206 of Orr: My Story, Orr writes that "After Eagleson's conviction, a roster of legends--including Brad Park, Gordie Howe, Bobby Hull, Johnny Bucyk, and Ted Lindsay--and I announced that if Eagleson were permitted to remain in the Hockey Hall of Fame, we would resign from it. Before he could be kicked out, he resigned" (Toronto: Viking, 2013). An autographed first printing of Orr: My Story is also available from this bookseller. The two books serve as companion pieces and, together, the set could be called "The Good, the Bad and the Hockey". See our catalog of Autographed Hockey Books on our ABE Storefront, which includes books by Howe and Hull. Signed by Author(s).

Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Near Fine. 1st Edition. 1st printing of the first Canadian hardcover edition SIGNED by the author on the half-title page, DATED by him in the MONTH of PUBLICATION (October 14, 1991) and dedicated to Peter Gzowski of CBC Radio's "Morningside", who interviewed Eagleson at the… beginning of the book tour. A piece of Canadiana, this is a truly unique and well-preserved copy of a scarcely autographed book published a few years before Eagleson was brought to justice on both sides of the border for racketeering, obstruction of justice, embezzlement and fraud. The dedication reads, "To Peter Thanks for kicking-off the book tour. Your contribution to Canada is outstanding. 'Morningside' is a fixture around our house. Sincerely 'The Eagle.' Black paper boards and binding with gold titles and white endpapers. A tight copy with sharp corners. Two, small, faint tea-colored stains on the bottom exposed page edges, next to the spine. The jacket is bright, crisp and price intact. Tanning to the top and bottom edges of the white flaps and typical shelf wear to the surface of the panels. Bobby Orr is the client who Eagleson defrauded most famously. Eagleson writes about it in two chapters entitled The Break with Orr - Part I and II.

SYNOPSIS: Dictatorial. Rude. Dedicated. Loyal. Crude. Gentlemanly. Over the years, all those descriptions and more have been applied to Alan Eagleson. Critics and fans alike will find supporting evidence here in the only firsthand account of the life, so far, of a remarkable Canadian. As honest memoirs tend to be, in some ways this is a disturbing book. The quarter-century and more of headlines featuring Alan Eagleson have built up a controversial public persona for him in hockey, law, and politics. Until now, however, the man behind the image has remained unknown. This book covers, from the inside, many of the best-known events of Eagleson's life in a manner that no outside observer can match. The bombshell of his 1979 split with Bobby Orr is part of it, a split that widened into a painful twelve years of animosity between two men once thought to be inseparable--all while, Eagleson confesses, he never stopped regarding Orr as the best hockey player he ever saw. Orr's accusations are covered here in detail, along with Eagleson's eventual decision to defend himself, even though Nancy, his wife, told him he could not successfully attack a legend. The irony is that Orr's skills on the ice and Eagleson's skills in negotiating record-breaking contracts had together created the legend in the first place. There is fun and drama in Eagleson's recollections of the early years when he secretly formed the National Hockey League Players Association and became its executive director. He tells the inside story of how the historic 1972 hockey series between the best Canadians and the best of the Soviets came about, and gives his own formula for successful negotiations with Soviet officials. He tells, too, of how close the team was to disaster before three consecutive Canadian wins in Moscow gave them victory and a happy flight home to a thunderous welcome. The mid-1970s beginnings of the Canada Cup, the gradual erosion in the 1980s of his once-unanimous NHLPA support, the Eagleson side of the 1989 attempt to out him--it's all here--along with telling anecdotes about his warm family life and the good and the bad about some of the most famous names in hockey. Alan Eagleson was born in St. Catharines in 1933 (his father later was a union steward), attended the University of Toronto, graduated in law in 1957, sat in the Ontario Legislature from 1963 to 1967. He married Nancy Elizabeth Fisk of Collingwood, Ontario, on April 16, 1960, and they are the parents of Allen (1961) and Jill (1964), both lawyers. Alan refers to Nancy as his most important adviser and his best friend. Among his many honours, he is an Officer of the Order of Canada and a member of the Canadian Sports Hall of Fame and Hockey Hall of Fame. Scott Young was born in Manitoba in 1918. He began writing sports at eighteen with the Winnipeg Free Press, and during stints as a columnist with the Globe and Mail and as sports editor of the Toronto Telegram, has written many books of fiction and non-fiction, including novels, books for children, and the memoirs of Punch Imlach and Conn Smythe. His honours include membership in the Hockey Hall of Fame, the CBC Wilderness Award for a TV script, and the honorary degree of Doctor of Letters from Trent University. Size: 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.
