Celebrate the 50th anniversary of the Boston Bruins’ 1970 Stanley Cup championship season by reliving all the moments in Kooks and Degenerates on Ice. While the United States seethed from racial violence, war, and mass shootings, the 1969-70 “Big, Bad Bruins,” led by the legendary Bobby Orr, brushed off their perennial losing ways to defeat the St. Louis Blues in the Stanley Cup Finals for their first championship in 29 years. In Kooks and Degenerates on Ice: Bobby Orr, the Big Bad Bruins, and the Stanley Cup Championship That Transformed Hockey, Thomas J. Whalen recounts all the memorable moments from that championship season. Behind the no-nonsense yet inspired leadership of head coach Harry Sinden, the once laughingstock Bruins became the talk of the sporting world. Nicknamed the “Big, Bad Bruins” for their propensity to out-brawl and intimidate their opponents, the team rallied around the otherworldly play of Bobby Orr and his hard-hitting teammates to take the NHL by surprise in a season to remember. Kooks and Degenerates on Ice brings to life all the colorful personalities and iconic players from this Stanley Cup-raising team. In addition, the season is placed into its historical context as the United States struggled with issues of war, race, politics, and class, making this a must-read for sports enthusiasts, hockey fans, and those interested in twentieth-century American history.

'School's out! The distant music of an ice cream van is a familiar sound near my house. It reminds me of summer days spent running around the Phoenix Park, playing frisbee and rolling down hills, wearing ourselves out until it was time to relax with a creamy 99. As an adult, I still love going to the park (without the rolling down hills part!) and the odd time I even indulge in some nostalgia by queuing with the kids for an enormous, super-soft whippy. July days are great days' Sophie! Enjoy gorgeous July recipes, including: - Classic Carbonara - Cherry Clafoutis - Best-Ever Steak Sandwich - Meringue Nests with Raspberry Cream Filling - Crispy Caramelised Chicken Thighs with Lemon and Coriander Rice - Quick Banoffee Pie - Lamb Burgers with Tomato and Coriander Raita - Raspberry Smoothies

Life happens to all of us. Sometimes life is sweet and fair and perfect. Most of the time life is tough. It grabs you around the ankles and shakes you like a snow globe full of kooky people and strange events. This is one description of what life is like living in a snow globe of blizzard proportions where up is down, normal is a fantasy, and karma fuels the chaos that pops up in the most unexpected places. This is the reality we were never told to expect, but that most of us find ourselves trying to shovel our way out of.
