Résumé
Born in 1921 into a working-class family, Maurice Richard came of age as a French Canadian and athlete during an era when the majority population of Quebec slumbered. Richard aspired only to score goals and win championships for the Montreal… Canadiens, but he represented far more. Beginning with his 50-goal, 50-game season in 1944-45 and through his battles with the league over bigotry toward French-Canadian players, Richard's on-ice ferocity and off-ice dignity echoed the change in Quebec. Some descriptions of violence and some strong language. 2011. (Extraordinary Canadians)
