Dan Diamond has created a fascinating and challenging collection of
Maple Leafs trivia in the form of quizzes, crosswords, and other
puzzles. Only the most fanatical Leafs fan will be able to answer many
of the questions, but the answers themselves provide an interesting
history of the franchise.

Diamond’s questions encompass all of the Leafs teams, from the
earliest teams under Conn Smythe to the Cliff Fletcher success. Each
section is divided thematically into such areas as famous trades and
famous rookies. The trivia questions are so difficult that they
sometimes frustrate rather than entertain.

This is a book that will probably appeal only to Leafs fans, but for
those fans it will provide a wealth of knowledge.
