**Don Cherry has become a broadcasting legend, garnering millions of
fans around the world with his Coach's Corner segment on Hockey Night
in Canada. For over a decade, Cherry also hosted the TV show
Grapevine, which brought viewers up close and personal with the
biggest names in sports.

Don was the interviewer and his son, Tim, produced the show. And no one
in the sports world, from hockey players to boxers to curlers to
umpires, turned down an invitation to appear on it. It was on that show
that Don has some of his fondest memories from his many years in the
biz, and, at last, in
Don Cherry's Sports Heroes, he gives us behind-the-scenes access to
some of his most fascinating and revealing interviews with the all-time
greats.
Don has his signature candidness and sizzling humour in these interviews
and stories. In these pages you'll find epic stories about hockey greats
Maurice Rocket Richard, Wayne Gretzky, Bobby Orr and Gordie Howe, to
name a few, and since Grapevine TV was the place to be in the sports
world, you can revel in some unforgettable stories on players in other
fields, too.
Don Cherry shares with the world tales that only a true insider could
know. You won't be disappointed.
