This endearing story of perseverance and determination casts new
light on the memorable 50-year career Lou Nanne achieved in hockey
while both on and off the rink. He played in 635 NHL regular season
games for the Minnesota North Stars, the only defenseman to lead
the Western Collegiate Hockey Association (WCHA) in scoring, and
was the captain of the University of Minnesota's Gophers and the
1968 U.S. Olympic men's hockey team. Lou Nanne has done it all, and
now for the first time shares his life's journey of great memories,
accomplishments, and sorrows in his autobiography, A Passion to
Win. Nanne takes readers into the locker rooms and onto the ice in
some of the greatest NHL arenas in both the United States and
Canada, talking about not only the sensational wins but also the
losses that haunt him to this day. Most notably, he speaks frankly
about his most harrowing struggle: the disease that nearly overcame
him and resulted in his departure from hockey.
