Description:When major league hockey came to Indianapolis in 1974, no one knew the sport s two greatest players would wear the Racers' red, white & blue. But the Racers story is so much more than just a launch pad for Wayne Gretzky & Mark Messier -- it is a time when the city's love affair with hockey grew to dizzying heights, then crashed in heartbreaking defeat. Journalist Timothy Gassen was there and details the only firsthand account of the golden era for pro hockey in Indiana: The Indianapolis Racers. "Red, White & Blues" is a breakthrough book for fans of sports in Indianapolis, the rebel World Hockey Association, and the game s greatest player, Wayne Gretzky. The entry of "The Great One" into pro hockey is detailed for the first time ever, and the curious debut of Mark Messier in a Racers jersey is also explored. Award-winning hockey writer Timothy Gassen combines years of his recent reporting, interviews and exhaustive research with his personal recollections of his time in Indianapolis interacting with the Racers throughout the franchise s turbulent, exciting history.
