A few of us knew Chuck was fighting cancer, but up until now he had been keeping it to himself as he tries to finish one more book. Now he needs help.
Thanks to Gord Lansdell at Northwest Broadcasters for the heads up to the SUN link.
Vancouver historian, author, columnist and broadcaster Chuck Davis has been told that he is dying of incurable lung cancer. Davis, 74, has made an impassioned plea to find a writer to finish the book The History of Metropolitan Vancouver, which he has been working on for more than a decade. He got his start in radio at CAE (Canadian Army Europe) Werl, West Germany in 1956. Among his many books on local history is Top Dog! a history of CKNW, which he penned in 1994.
