<P style=&#34;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt&#34; class=MsoNormal>This monumental book about the Philadelphia Flyers not only documents all the best moments and personalities in the history of the team, but also unmasks the regrettably awful and the unflinchingly ugly. In entertaining&#8212;and unsparing&#8212;fashion, this book sparkles with&#160;Flyers highlights and lowlights, from wonderful and wacky memories to the famous and infamous. Such moments include&#160;the era of the &#8220;Broad Street Bullies&#8221; as well as the playoff drought in the late 1980s and early 1990s. Learn how visionary founding owner Ed Snider created the Flyers and sold the city of Philadelphia on the sport of hockey. Get the inside story of how the franchise built a championship squad, then repeatedly rebuilt it over the next three decades to stay at the top of the NHL&#8212;in the process compiling the league&#8217;s second-best all-time winning percentage. Enjoy classic tales about the great rivalries (especially with the Rangers, Devils, and Penguins), about the great coaches&#8212;including Fred Shero and Pat Quinn&#8212;and countless great players: Barber, Clarke, Parent, Poulin, Hextall, Primeau, and many more. Whether providing fond memories, goose bumps, or laughs, this portrait of the team and its history is sure to appeal to the fan who has been through it all. This updated edition takes readers through the 2012&#8211;13 season and features the Flyers&#8217; trip to the 2010 Stanley Cup Finals as well as recent stars Claude Giroux, Scott Hartnell, Kimmo Timonen, and more.
