Review by: Vern Haggard on March 30, 2012 : star star star star
This is a very enjoyable and humerous book. I can attest to its accuracy at least to the extent that I know Chuck quite well, have worked with him in the sport system and have heard many of these stories firsthand from Chuck before. I also have had glimpses of the enjoyment of other members as they talked about and worked with Chuck's sometimes unique manner of policing. He is a legend in the school system of Yukon for his community policing efforts and has contributed a lot to a number of sports in the Yukon Territory. It's a great read.
