| Description: |
Twenty years after his last drink, Peter Hamill looks back on his early life. Growing up during the depression and World War II, he learnt that drinking was an essential part of being a man. Only later did he discover its ability to destroy the important tools of clarity, consciousness and memory. |
| Synopsis: |
A journalist and author of Loving Women recreates the hard-drinking Brooklyn-Irish lifestyle that informed every aspect of his childhood and early career and that eventually destroyed his marriage. |
