{"product_id":"9781452024639","title":"Charley's Boys: St. Bernard College in the Sixties","description":"\u003cp\u003eI was surprised when a friend told me he wasn't aware that St. Bernard\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ehad ever had a college. After thinking about it for a moment, I\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003erealized it had been almost thirty years since St. Bernard College\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eclosed its doors. That was what motivated me to write a book about my\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eexperience there. I attended St. Bernard College from August 1966\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003euntil May 1970. It was a time when St. Bernard College strived with\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eattendance peeking during those years. Also of significance, various\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003esports were putting St. Bernard on the map. The 1967-68 basketball\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eteam was outstanding, winning their conference championship in one of\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ethe highest scoring games in conference history. In writing the book,\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eI mention many other things that went on there, including campus\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eactivities, other sports and the professors, priests and students of\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ethe college. The book emphasizes two primary things: that outstanding\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ebasketball team of 1967-68 of which I was a member, and the influence\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eCoach Charles Richard had on his athletes, students and the college\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eitself. You will take a walk down memory lane as you read about what\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eit was like at St. Bernard College in the late Sixties.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"AuthorHouse","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47124093468912,"sku":"9781452024639","price":9.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781452024639_p0.jpg?v=1763842005","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781452024639","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
