Jim Barber managed to find time to write this book while working as the Sports and Arts Editor for "The Barrie Advance", and as the Editor for the "Collingwood-Wasaga Beach Connection", two community newspapers in Central Ontario. Jim is a recipient of the Ontario Community Newspaper Association Award for Sportswriting and a Canadian Community Newspaper Award for editorial writing. Educated at Trent University in Peterborough, Ontario, and Toronto's Centennial College, he has had a passion (obsession?) for hockey and hockey history most of his adult life. The books of Scott Young and Brian McFarlane inspired him as a youth, as do the works of Andrew Podnieks, Douglas Hunter, and Bruce Dowbiggin today. A member of the Society for International Hockey Research, Jim lives in a very old house, in a very small village called Nottawa, a few kilometers from the shores of Georgian Bay, near Collingwood, Ontario.Barber, Jim is the author of 'Toronto Maple Leafs : Stories of Canada's Legendary Team', published 2006 under ISBN 9781554397143 and ISBN 1554397146.
