Reseña del libro "Path to the Summit. Anatoli Tarasov and the History of Soviet Hockey Part 2 (1957-1972) (en Inglés)"

Path to the Summit: Part 2 offers a captivating deep dive into the tumultuous world of Soviet hockey from 1957 to 1972. Amid Cold War tensions, Anatoli Tarasov pursued an unwavering quest for greatness. He translated and adapted Lloyd Percival's Hockey Handbook for Russian coaches, then used it to transform Soviet hockey through pioneering tactics, pattern passing, puck control, and scientific training. By integrating ballet, gymnastics, and overload training, Tarasov made CSKA a dominant force domestically and led the Soviet national team to unparalleled success, winning nine consecutive World Championships and three Olympic gold medals.

However, success bred enemies. His abrasive personality, defiance of bureaucrats, and unwillingness to compromise clashed with powerful figures such as Sergei Pavlov and Andrei Starovoitov. Complex political rivalries led to incidents, including public outbursts and defiance of a direct order regarding a politically motivated game against Czechoslovakia. It culminated in his shocking dismissal and replacement by rival Vsevolod Bobrov, just as his lifelong dream was about to be realized: a direct confrontation with the Canadian professionals in the 1972 Summit Series.

Rich with rare anecdotes, including American coach Lou Vairo's vivid recollections of training under Tarasov, the book utilizes meticulous research to paint a Greek tragedy on Soviet ice: a visionary genius who conquered the hockey world but was undone by the rigid system he served. Essential reading for fans seeking the raw, unvarnished story of Soviet hockey's golden era.
