Mack recounts his journey from a violent, ego-driven waterfront alcoholic who lost families, careers, and self-respect to a man sober since June 15, 1966 through Alcoholics Anonymous, the Twelve Steps, and a spiritual awakening; after hitting bottom when he could no longer swallow his last drink, he was guided into AA by another alcoholic and carried through the Steps by tough, loving old-timers who taught him honesty, amends, and service, allowing him to rebuild his life with dignity, meaningful work, restored relationships, decades of committed marriage, sober children and grandchildren, and a life rich with travel, laughter, and purpose—ultimately showing that AA may not solve every problem, but it teaches how to live sober one day at a time with a quiet heart.
