Sobre IBD

This is the third book in a trilogy, enjoying, while examining the adventures and memoirs of several generations of one American family, the McCarthy’s. It is seen through the eyes of its Author Mike McCarthy. It’s set amidst the times of nostalgia of the 1950’s, then through the Author’s own personal journey of his alcoholic addiction, and finally, his Songs and Stories, he weaves looking back on his life, and some of the amazing recollections of it. ’The Sounds and Smells of My Childhood’, ’My Road to Sobriety’, and ’Songs and Stories from a Canadian Yooper’, each are cut from the same thread with a similar purpose that integrity and gratitude matter. I hope you enjoy reading them.Mike McCarthy (R Michael) was born and raised in Sault Ste. Marie, Michigan, and graduated from Loretto High School and Lake Superior State University. His career started in the Soo in community and economic development in 1970. He was the former president of the Chippewa County EDC in the late ’70s. He is known in the business as a top economic strategist and as a passionate fund-raiser. His fund-raising career got its start in 1988, and he has raised over $375 million conducting a hundred capital campaigns in the United States and Canada. He and his wife, Judy, live in Denver.
