SynopsisThe book follows the development of Toronto's earliest professional hockey teams, particularly the Toronto Professional Hockey Club (1906–09) and the Toronto Blueshirts (from 1911).[1] Prior to this, the development of professional teams was fiercely opposed by the Ontario Hockey Association and by Toronto Telegram publisher John Ross Robertson.[1] PublicationHarper wrote the book over an eight-year period.[2] It was released on 5 November 2013 by Simon & Schuster.[2] Proceeds from the book's sales support the Canadian Forces Personnel and Family Support Services.[3] The book also covers other aspects of the early-century game such as the development of artificial ice rinks.[6] ReceptionPerry Lefko's negative review in Quill & Quire deemed that the book "reads like a long-winded essay or thesis from a hockey historian".[4] Globe and Mail reviewer John Allemang noted that "[v]erbal amateurism apart, it's enjoyable to catch traces of a more boyish, playful Stephen Harper".[5] The Toronto Star review of the book also noted the academic style of the book but indicated the presentation of early 20th-century hockey provided a "historical perspective that has received scant attention among all the books devoted to hockey".[2] References1. ^{{cite news | url=http://fullcomment.nationalpost.com/2013/11/05/chris-selley-stephen-harpers-long-awaited-hockey-history-is-exhaustive-exhausting/ | first=Chris | last=Selley | title=Stephen Harper's long-awaited hockey history is exhaustive, exhausting | newspaper=National Post | date=5 November 2013 | accessdate=19 November 2013 }} 2. ^1 2 3 {{cite news | url=https://www.thestar.com/sports/leafs/2013/11/05/pm_on_his_game_with_new_hockey_book_dimanno.html | title=Stephen Harper on his game with new hockey book: DiManno | first=Rosie | last=DiManno | newspaper=Toronto Star | date=5 November 2013 | accessdate=18 November 2013 }} 3. ^{{cite news | url=http://www.winnipegfreepress.com/arts-and-life/entertainment/books/prime-ministers-hockey-book-to-hit-store-shelves-in-early-november-222377511.html?device=mobile | title=Prime minister's hockey book to hit store shelves in early November | author=The Canadian Press | newspaper=Winnipeg Free Press | date=4 September 2013 | accessdate=18 November 2013 }} 4. ^{{cite news | url=http://www.quillandquire.com/reviews/review.cfm?review_id=8197 | first=Perry | last=Lefko | title=A Great Game: The Forgotten Leafs and the Rise of Professional Hockey | work=Quill & Quire | date=December 2013 | accessdate=18 November 2013 }} 5. ^1 {{cite news | url=https://www.theglobeandmail.com/arts/books-and-media/a-great-game-stephen-harpers-new-book-revels-in-hockey-nostalgia-but-leaves-the-analysis-for-others/article15347475/ | title=A Great Game: Stephen Harper's new book revels in hockey nostalgia, but leaves the analysis for others | first=John | last=Allemang | newspaper=The Globe and Mail | date=8 November 2013 | accessdate=18 November 2013 }} External links
