Overview

A memoir of growing up in Connecticut's capital city and chronicling the heyday '60s and '70s in Hartford. George Ducharme believes he's led a fairy tale life. But his childhood growing up in 1930s Hartford, Connecticut was anything but charmed. In this unblinking memoir of devastating hard times and incredible success, Ducharme chronicles the heyday of the mid-century in Connecticut's capital city. He led the campaign for the first woman mayor of the city, Ann Uccello, a Republican beating the odds against an entrenched Democratic majority. With no sports experience, he held management positions with the Hartford Knights football team, and the storied Hartford Whalers hockey team. With his uncanny knack for marketing, Ducharme introduced the ""Brass Bonanza"" theme song that brought loyal hockey fans to their feet. He turned around the state chapter of the Multiple Sclerosis Society ... and more. Above all, he was a devout son, brother, uncle and friend.
