Maple Leaf history comes alive in this wonderful A-Z album of some of the Leafs’ most memorable players.

Share in a hockey legacy more than 100 years in the making.

Each featured player’s profile includes stats, career highlights and strikingly realistic illustrations. Although this is primarily a children’s book, its illustrated picture portraits and sophisticated design will resonate with hockey fans of all ages.
