The mighty Soviets were the favorites to win hockey gold at the 1980 Winter Olympics. But a team of US college players had other ideas. The stunning upset of the Soviet hockey team by the young Americans has been called the greatest moment in international hockey. And to many people the victory was about much more than sports. Americans had gone through difficult times at home and abroad. Beating the best hockey team in the world - and its major Cold War rival - gave Americans a sense of pride. One iconic photo captured the impact of that “miraculous” historic event.

don't read the pictures!

It sounds like listening to this that the reader is reading the text underneath photos that don't exist in an audiobook. The resul.\nT is that it goes along really well and then seems very disjointed at points when they are reading text underneath a photo versus just continuing to read the story.

The facts of the story are on point

Way too many drop outs. This made the book very hard to follow at times

Skipped throughout

Story seemed to be ok, however the audio skipped a lot throughout and made it very hard to listen to.
