Šťastného autobiografia Hokej na dvoch kontinentoch ponúka logicky len Petrov pohľad. Táto kniha sa zrejme viac blíži k realite, keďže sú v nej vyjadrenia všetkých bratov, funkcionárov a novinárov. Mňa to dosť bavilo, myslel som si, že po Hokeji na dvoch kontinentoch budem čítať viac-menej to isté, ale nebolo to tak. Bol by som veľmi zvedavý, ako by vyzerala slovenská stopa v Quebecu, keby sa nepresťahovali do Colorada v roku 1995. Viem si predstaviť Petra Šťastného ako dôležitého človeka v organizácii, ktorý by tam výrazne pretláčal Slovákov. V našej zlatej ére by tam možno boli aj piati-šiesti, keďže aj fanúšikovia majú ku Slovákom vzťah, ale to si len domýšľam. Snáď sa Nordiques raz vrátia na mapu NHL, už asi pätnásť rokov im v tom držím palce a stále len nejaký Winnipeg či Las Vegas... :)

Very well written book by one of its main actors, the agent Gill Leger.
Being born in Slovakia after the the collapse of the Soviet Union, I am hearing about the life of how it was before only from my parents and their parents. I knew Peter Stastny before too, but I hadn't known how much of an impact he had had that time and how significant and dangerous was the runaway to the Western World.
The book is not only a statement on what has happened (even though it describes the events in very interesting little details) but also it is a food for thought about values such as freedom, bravery, family, dedication, selfishness (good or bad).
The history of 1968 and 1989 is a very impprtant part of our history and this books gives a very thrilling sport perspective on it.
I don't even know what would it make 5 stars, it's hard to add evidence from illegal activity :-)

veľmi zaujímavý príbeh, žiaľ, občas repetitívne podané s príliš častými odbočkami k nedôležitým epizódam.
občas dosť mechanický preklad s neprirodzeným slovosledom.
