Reviews
"Hockey fans continue to have a fascination with the Whalers franchise, with good reason. From the rough early years, to the development of an exciting young team that thrilled one of sport's most underrated fan bases, to the final years of controversy and chaos, Pat Pickens's account of the team's colorful history is a terrific read. It's filled with memories from over a dozen figures who continue to have a powerful impact on the NHL to this day."--Rick Peckham, former play-by-play announcer for the Whalers and Tampa Bay Lightning, Pickens does a magnificent job in giving the bigger picture surrounding the franchise. No professional sports entity exists in a vacuum. There is always a wider context. Throughout The Whalers, one learns about the layers of external factors that impacted the franchise and ultimately led to its move from Hartford to Raleigh. Contemporaneous occurrences and trends within the NHL and other major sports leagues, the regional and national economy, demographic data, political realities, and statewide cultural realities and quirks are some among several outside factors that Pickens strategically and informatively weaves into his narrative and analysis. Lastly, the decisive and unambiguous conclusions by Pickens are appreciated, commendable, and refreshing.

Item as described, good price, well packaged, arrived slightly later than hoped (not in time for Christmas ) but the order was placed in a very busy shipping period. No issue with the seller’s speed of response and sending the item. Great seller!

Great seller with great communication! Item arrived complete, as described and for a good price. There was a bit of an issue with tracking the order at one point (not the seller's fault), but seller was proactive in reaching out to the carrier and myself to get everything back on track. Arrived when expected.

Quality and hard to find book that won't be released 'til January 2025 in the U.S.A.
Fantastic price.
Book was in a secure and protective package. Arrived a few days after I placed order and that was faster than I expected.
Seller is a fantastic communicator and proactive in regards to tracking status. I'd definitely buy from them in the future.
