wayne Gretzky has
been called "the
greatest athlete of
the twentieth ten-
tury"--a judgment that may not
be all that exaggerated. USA
Today readers voted him the
fourth greatest in this century--
behind Muhammad Ali, Babe
Ruth, and Jim Thorpe. In fact,
what this skinny, blue-eyed der-
vish can do with a puck and stick
may never be seen again. The
legendary Gordie Howe set the
all-time NHL scoring record in
twenty-six seasons. Wayne
Gretzky smashed it in ten.
Yet this superstar may be
renowned as much for his mod-
esty and easy humor, for his team-
work, leadership, and exemplary
sportsmanship in a rough game,
as for any of the records he s bro-
ken. Now, in his characteristically
easy and direct style, Gretzky tells
his life story: the values instilled
by his close-knit family, the joys
as well as the pain and loneliness
that accompanied his phenome-
nal success as a young player. We
learn how he turned his natural
gifts into extraordinary skills
with the help and encouragement
of his father and through his own
persistent, dedicated effort. He
writes candidly about his career
with the Edmonton Oilers, the
team he captained to four Stanley
