   Front Jacket Excerpt:   
   "Cyclone Taylor may or may not have been the greatest hockey player who   
   ever lived, but he was, by all accounts, the game's greatest showman, a   
   charming personality both on and off the ice. Frederick Wellington Taylor   
   was born in Tara, Ontario, in 1884 and grew up in nearby Listowel. He   
   learned to skate at an early age, and in his teens was already touted as   
   one of the fastest and trickiest players around. His career spanned the   
   entire history of the modern game of hockey-from its pioneering days to   
   its eventual emergence as a big-time money sport. In 1905 Taylor joined the   
   first professional hockey league in history as a member of the Portage Lake   
   team in Houghton, Michigan...A few years later Taylor was paid $5,250 for   
   one 12-game season with the Renfrew Creamery Kings, later known as the   
   Millionaires - at that time, the highest per-game salary ever received by a   
   team athlete."
