The Bar That Wasn't: Journey of a Soul in Long-Term Recovery

By Jim W

Book Overview

The Bar That Wasn't is a remarkable story of demoralization, struggle, and triumph as a twenty-seven-year-old husband and father begins a slog through the twelve steps of Alcoholics Anonymous to reach more than fifty-five years of uninterrupted recovery. It not only details the author's personal experience but that of several others along the way from whom he learned to live a sober life. The key roles of therapy, faith, research, and love are all knitted into a tapestry of hope. Whether you are a recovering person just starting out or seasoned, a sponsor, loved one, therapist, doctor, pastor, researcher, student, or teacher, you can benefit from this unique, beautifully written story. In the vastness of addiction literature, there isn't anything else quite like The Bar That Wasn't, as it tracks a lifelong evolution of recovery using "all the tools."
