Description
"Slippery Steps isn't your typical, hell and back recovery memoir. I never intended to quit drinking, rarely gave it a thought. I'd spent decades as a successful and productive journalist. I was a loving husband and father. My life worked, and worked well. Until it didn't. Freedom from drinking has enriched my life in ways I'd never imagined. I'd been numbing myself to sleep, and sleepwalking my way through life. It's never too late to wake up. This is a book about how the worst day of my life turned out to be one of the best."--
