Description
Frozen in Time: The Lost History of Scottish Ice Hockey 1895-1940
This comprehensive and social history of Scottish ice hockey explores the country's pioneering role in the early development and organisation of the sport. From the late 19th century to 1940, the book delves into the Scottish League's eleven seasons of competition, examining themes such as the transition from amateurism to semi-professionalism and the debate over home-based players versus imported talent.
A definitive records section is included, providing a detailed account of the sport during this period. The book also acknowledges the significant contribution of ice hockey missionaries from Canada, highlighting the unique link between Scotland and Canada that has endured for generations.
