Mario

by Lawrence Martin

In an NHL career that spans less than ten years, Mario Lemieux has just about done it all. His outstanding athletic achievements, his inspirational battles against not one but two career-threatening health traumas and his intense rivalry with Wayne Gretzky are all revealed in this engrossing biography which balances the myth and the man. "Mario" is the behind-the-scenes story of a player Hockey Poll 1994 voted the greatest in the league, a solitary genius the likes of which are rarely encounter.

Clunky ass writing and only details up until 1991. Still had a good time learning about Le Magnifique.
