Scott Young saved time writing this by lifting heavily from Hewitt's "His Own Story", but he does include a lot of personal info unlike Hewitt's book including the extreme closeness between Foster and his father W.A., involvement of Foster in his son Bill's career (as well as covering Bill's full career) and takes the book through Hewitt's death. The extended personal info is all of a somewhat positive nature. Young gave only a few paragraphs to the fact that Foster Hewitt was a bigot (race and anti-French) and only a couple of sentences to alleged long-lived affair (her name was incorporated into Hewitt's company name).

The life of Canadian broadcasting legend Foster Hewitt is recounted in vivid detail in author Scott Young's moving biography. From his early days as a sports announcer on local radio to his nationwide success on Hockey Night in Canada, Hewitt's remarkable career spanned the early days of television, the opening of Toronto's Maple Leaf Gardens and the epic 1972 Canada-Russia Summit Series. For his contributions to Canadian sports media, Foster Hewitt was inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame in 1965 and was made an Officer of the Order of Canada in 1972.
