Don’s 4th of 5 books released in 2014. Appropriately titled this book really gets into Don’s personal challenges in his life. From his life with the “Darth Vader” of hockey, Eddie Shore, to him getting in hot water about his feelings about women reporters in the dressing room, plus describing his near death experience drowning on the St. Lawrence River. This book is one of his best as it describes, “the world according to Don Cherry”.
-Have a piece of history with Don’s Press Pass to the 2008 Nagano, Japan Olympics.
Don was in fine form there upsetting the Bloc Quebecois party members, while they complained there were too many Canadian Flags in the Olympic Village. Don of course had a response to that by saying, "They don't like the Canadian flag. You know it's funny, they don't want the Canadian flag but they want our money." He also said, "Then we pick a French guy, some ski guy that nobody knows about," referring to French-Canadian skier Jean-Luc Brassard, who was selected as Canada's flag bearer. No doubt, Don was in fine form there.
