In The Return of the Hockey Nomad: Into Russia, we learn why, in the territories of the former Soviet Union, beating the Russians at their own game - hockey - is a source of furious pride and vindication. Author/musician Dave Bidini - the Nomad - travels to Russia to explore the fascination with the game, riding the Trans-Siberian Express across the wintry steppe. On the way, he talks to Russians about the fading legacy of Russian hockey, the future of the game, and the future of their country.
