I have for sale the out-of-print, 1st edition hardcover book "My Three
Hockey Players" by Colleen Howe (1975). The 1st edtion contains 192 pages
including black and white photgraphs profiling the hockey careers of
Gordie, Mark, and Marty Howe.
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.
The out-of-print "My Three Hockey Players" 1st edition book is in MINT
