Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Anyone who grew up in the late 1940s and 50s will recognize themselves and their experiences in this story of a Halifax boyhood.

This is a book that captures the spirit of an optimistic age when the world was becoming a better place for everyone, every day. For anyone who knows Halifax, there are special pleasures here. There’s a boy’s-eye view of the construction of the Armdale Rotary, the thrills of climbing to the top of the Dingle Tower, and the excitement of jumping from ice pan to ice pan on the semi-frozen Northwest Arm.
