An Olympic Story
Newly-revised and updated Brothers of the Wind is the epic story of three young speed skaters and their years-long quest for Olympic gold. A compelling story about a sport that has accounted for more Olympic medals for Canada than any other, these young speed skaters began their Olympic quest in 1992; it is both poignant and inspirational.
