If These Walls Could Talk: Boston Bruins: Stories from the Boston Bruins Ice, Locker Room, and Press Box

Growing up in Maine and being a Bruins fan, it is so nice to hear these stories. I grew up watching Maine Mariner games, and some Bruin games, but unfortunately, many games were not broadcast in Maine then. But, eventually they were and I seldom miss one on TV. I always admired the "glue" guys, such as Ference, Thornton, Campbell, and others. My two favorite chapters were Marathon day, and the Community chapter. I woke up in Boston that Friday the 19th. It was surreal the emptiness on the streets, the police and military presence, and the unknown. As a true New Englander, I wasn't afraid, but just wanted resolution and justice. Finally, I love how the Bruins always reach out to children and people in need. So classy, and means so much to the families, individuals, but also to he fan base to always want to help out too. Thank god Dale for Sharing these memories. Great read.

Been a Bruins fan since I was 8 years old (almost 40 years), and this book was a wonderful stroll down memory lane as well as very informative for many players and events that were rt of my favorite team before my time! Highly recommend this book to any Bruins fan!

I was waiting in line for a beer in the Putnam Club at Gillette Stadium prior to a late season Pats/Jets game this season and I turned around to be unexpectedly face to face with Dale Arnold. If I’d been a little more prepared, I could have had some great discussions of Bruins teams throughout history. I feel I have a very good handle on all things Bruins and have been a rabid fan going back to the 1969-70 cup season! In my off guard encounter with Dale, all I could think of was that I’d added this book to my wishlist on Amazon but hadn’t pulled the trigger on it. I mentioned that fact to Dale and he cracked me up by retorting, “well why don’t you buy the damned thing”? It compelled me to revisit my Amazon wish list and I bought the damned thing! Well I’m glad I did! Thanks Dale! It’s a fun read. Different than other books about wild Bruins stories where Phil Esposito got wheeled out of Mass General in his bed with a knee injury across the street into a bar with Orr and company and stories of that sort. I expected more of the same, but this book is quite different. It delves into other issues and focused on individual Bruins or people behind the scenes. Shed some light on a lot of interesting people. I even enjoyed Dale’s personal history and circuitous route to the Bruins broadcast booth. So take Dale’s advice and mine and go buy the damned thing!

Excellent insights and behind the scenes stories. Hockey is a small and close-knit society. Dale brings that to light. Really good!

Twelve-year old Bruins fan loved the gift. He started reading the moment he unwrapped the gift.

Well written stories for all Bruins Fans

I have been following The Boston Bruins since 1970 and can never get enough information. Dale Arnold's book is a great take on fellow announcers, players, and great stories. He makes you feel a part of not just the team, but of the broadcast as well. Thanks Dale!

Pretty good condition for the most part. Bought new but there was this weird sticky tape/glue substance on the back of the book and it was a pain to get off and left a few small marks, this was a gift.

My coworker is a huge boston bruin fan...she's gonna love it

Lots of cool facts and awesome stories. Fun to learn more about my favorite players and the team I love. A must read for any Bruins fan, an excellent book!

Great gift for a Boston fan

True Bruins fans love anything about the Bruins.

Thank you very much I was really satisfied with my purchase
