The Gods of Olympia Stadium: Legends of the Detroit Red Wings

Author Richard Kincaide brings to life what was at once the most glorious and the most tumultuous time in Detroit hockey history, the Original Six Era. Red Wings stars interviewed for The Gods Of Olympia Stadium: Legends of the Detroit Red Wings won 35 Stanley Cups between them. These are stories told by the biggest names in hockey both in Detroit and across Canada from the mid-1940s into the late 1960s. Red Wings legends like Gordie Howe, Alex Delvecchio, Bill Gadsby and Red Kelly as well as other stars from the National Hockey League from fifty years ago and longer, share their stories as they saw them -- as they lived them. A few things readers will discover include who Red Wings legend and Hockey Hall of Fame member Ted Lindsay thinks is the greatest Red Wing of all time and how trades by iron-fisted Detroit general manager Jack Adams ruined a team many players felt should have won a half-dozen more Stanley Cups. The Gods of Olympia Stadium: Legends of the Detroit Red Wings is hockey history in the truest sense of the term.

The Book is wonderful and a great read--finished it off in one night--left me awestruck and wondering when the next one will be available.

5A great book about hockey  Dec 17, 2003

The cover is fantastic! Looking at it kind of makes you feel like you've been checked by Gordie Howe himself. That is if being checked by Gordie were a good thing! This is one book you can tell by its cover! Of course what's most impressive is on the inside.
Shakespeare wrote in one the sonnets "so long as eyes can see, so long lives this. And this gives life to thee." Richard Kincaide has done his part to keep the legacy of these great gentlemen of hockey alive to inspire and entertain for, well, forever now. The rest is up to the fans. This book should be on the shelf of anyone who loves sports.

5Great Gift Idea!!  Jul 05, 2008
By Rebecca Dreslinski "Motown Mrs."
I gave this book to my Father-in-law (a long time Red Wing fan) for a Father's Day gift. It was great timing since the Wings clinched the Stanley Cup just weeks before! He loved it, reading it in only two days! He mentioned how interesting it was for weeks!

Before I gave it to him, I'll admit I glaced through some of the pages. It was an interesting concept-having the different players talk about their teammates. All the comments about one player were put into a chapter. So you had three or four pages of stories and anecdotes about one player all grouped together.

You also heard stories about their private lives and some behind the scenes moments of one of the greatest eras in hockey!

I highly recommend this book to anyone who is a long time hockey fan!



5A GREAT BOOK OF RED WING HISTORY  Apr 26, 2008
By COOL JEWEL
THE GODS OF OLYMPIA STADIUM IS A MUST READ FOR ALL NOSTALGIA AND LOVERS OF OLD RED WING HOCKEY. THERE ARE MANY GREAT PHOTOS AND SOME GREAT INTERVIEWS WITH RED WING LEGENDS TED LINDSAY AND GORDIE HOWE (GREAT THOU ART). THE INTERVIEWS ARE DETAILED, HONEST AND ENLIGHTENING. I HAVE READ MANY BOOKS ABOUT THE RED WINGS AND THIS IS ONE OF THE BEST. THE FRONT AND BACK COVER HAVE EXCELLENT AND NOSTALGIC PHOTOS OF MANY OF THESE GREAT PLAYERS FROM YEARS AGO. I AM GOING TO USE THIS BOOK AS A DECORATION BECAUSE I LOVE THE COVER SOME MUCH. WELL WORTH YOUR TIME AND MONEY.

5More than just hockey  Nov 11, 2003

Meet the greatest hockey players of all time. Rich Kincaide has caught the excitement, spirit, frenzy, and love for the game in these interviews of players on some of the best teams in the history of the Detroit Red Wings.

He may be interviewing men who played the game 50 years ago but you don't feel like you're reading history-- you are right there and enjoying the conversation with him.

Rich Kincaide's "The Gods of Olympia Stadium" is a great book for anyone with a passing interest in hockey and a must have for those who love it. Everyone: This book is a great holiday gift idea for the sports fan in your life!
