Mark Howe, NHL All Star & Olympian - Meet & Greet and Book Signing!

Sunday, November 3rd @ 2:00pm

Perhaps best known as the son of “Mr. Hockey,” Mark Howe managed to emerge from the shadow cast by his father to achieve greatness in his own right and in this book he vividly describes his unparalleled life in hockey.

A U.S. Olympian at age 16 and a four-time NHL All-Star, Howe was elected to the Hockey Hall of Fame in 2011. A year later, Mark Howe’s number was retired by the Philadelphia Flyers, where he starred for 10 seasons in the 1980s. After earning his 1972 silver medal for the U.S. Olympic team, Mark joined his father—who had just come out of retirement—and brother Marty with the Houston Aeros of the upstart World Hockey Associa­tion; Mark shares memories of playing alongside his father and brother for seven seasons.

Gordie Howe’s Son follows the rest of Mark’s career, through the injuries, trades to the Philadelphia Flyers and Detroit Red Wings, and experiences at the Stanley Cup Finals. A one-of-a-kind story, this autobiography shares never-before-told stories about hockey’s most beloved family.
