Today, after a lamentable delay, we're looking at The New York Rangers, by John Halligan.

The New York Rangers are an Original Six franchise, with four Stanley Cup championships to their credit.

Rangers fans have some of the most passionate fans in the NHL, and have probably the best known arena in all of sports, Madison Square Garden.

A veritable pantheon of stars have worn Rangers blue and white over the decades; Ron Greschner, Ron Duguay... Mark Messier signed with the Rangers in the early 90s and helped lead the club to their 4th Stanley Cup in 1994, silencing the critics once and for all. The immortal Wayne Gretzky finished his career as a Ranger as well.

This book is filled with wonderful pictures from the last few decades, and the history of the Rangers is well laid out by decade, for easy reference. Coaches, famous players, and historically important events are all pictured, making this a welcome book to any Ranger fan's collection.
