one Hull of a book

Dennis Hull is perhaps best known as Bobby's younger brother or Brett's uncle. Many people (maybe even Dennis) don't realize that Dennis had a very good career. Hull reveals some great unknown stories. The story behind him actually staying with the Blackhawks as a rookie is a classic! Hull speaks candidly about his bigger, more famous brother, Bobby, who left the Hawks for greener pastures in the WHA. He also discusses current star, Brett Hull. Of course, he goes beyond the Hull family and discusses other greats, like Howe, Richard and Lafleur. Dennis Hull is a funny, warm, thoughtful man and it comes across very naturally in his book. One gets the feeling that this book could have been 10 times larger and still not covered all of his experiences.

A Great Storyteller

Dennis Hull tells his stories in an intelligent and funny way. His autobiography is filled with humorous tales of his experiences as a Hull, a Chicago Blackhawk, and his successes on the MPH line. It's a good thing he gives 100 speaking engagements a year because you'll want to meet him after you read this.
