Summary

"Nobody thought the Soviet Union's hockey team could be beaten in the 1980 Winter Olympics. The Soviets had dominated the world of hockey for nearly 30 years. But then coach Herb Brooks molded a ragtag team of amateur players into a team that could compete with the best in the world. After months of hard work and determination, the U.S. men's hockey team achieved the impossible--and defeated the dreaded Soviets! With action-packed illustrations, now you can watch as the 1980 U.S. Olympic Hockey team achieves their miraculous victory." -- publisher's description
