"Jane S. offers us an invaluable gift in the words and wisdom that fill this book. Based on more than thirty-six years of personal recovery and service work, the lessons contained here reveal how a courageous woman, through Alcoholics Anonymous and the help of a gifted physician, found long-term solutions to the problems of alcoholism and manic-depressive illness. This engaging guidebook to recovery is highly recommended."
