Hockey for Dummies is an easy read - it's laid out well, has the facts you need to understand hockey, as well as interesting information about the history of the game and the players. It doesn't contain all of the rules in specific detail, but enough so that you understand the primary calls on the ice. A little knowledge goes a long way in understanding what's going on in this super-fast sport.

I bought it as a gag gift for a friend who knows nothing about hockey and just started watching the Pittsburgh Penguins games with us this year. She has actually learned from it so I guess it's a good reference book.

When I first go into hockey back in 1996 I knew nothing about the rules of the game. I purchased this book and could not put it down. 19 years later I still reference this book. I use it to educate people about the game over the current books that are out. I ordered this one for a friend who is trying to learn more about the game and understand the rules.

Great way to get started learning the sport of hockey. Written by a former player, who is a current announcer.
