Against all odds : the untold story of Canada's unlikely hockey heroes

Naworynski, P. J. (author.).

Summary: The announcement was shocking - Canada would not be sending a team to the 1948 Winter Olympics in Switzerland. Outraged, a Royal Canadian Air Force squadron leader, Sandy Watson, quickly assembled a team of air force hockey players who were "amateur enough" to complete under the Olympic guidelines. This is the inspiring untold story of a group of determined men, fresh from the battlefields of WWII, who surprised a nation and the world.
