This is the compilation of all five booklets written by Robert C. Hickle, written between 1976 to 1980. He reflects on his 40-plus years of experience counseling alcoholics, addicts, and their families; on the profession of addiction counseling, and on societal attitudes about alcoholism and addiction in general. Each booklet is divided into short chapters with titles such as "Alcoholic Lie a Lot" and "Sober and in Trouble" - all in a jargon-free, plain-speaking, down-to-earth style that reflects Bob's statement "I write like I talk."

In this second part of a five book series, the author recounts in his down-to-earth, jargon-free manner what he learned from alcoholics about alcoholism. With chapter titles like "A Word to the Professionals" and "When You're Ready, You're Ready" and "Quality Sobriety", he continues to explain what he has learned - an effort to help us all to understand the alcoholic/addict and their family and loved ones.

The author continues his dual quest of better understanding the alcoholic and alcoholism. Again with his standout chapter titles, you'll hear: "Spiritual Insight or Despair?", "Comes The Dawn", and "Dry For 15 Years, Happy For Three Months." Listen to what he has learned, how precious recovery and sobriety is, and how that motivates the recovering person to spread the word about the price they paid to get to where they are with their recovery.

Sobriety isn't just not drinking or using. Rather, it is a number of pieces that come together that make sense, creating a coherent whole which we can call life. In this audiobook, Hickle offers such pieces to consider as: "The Professionals See Them First", "I Never Got Anybody Drunk", and so much more! Like his other works, this audiobook is in Hickle's straight-forward, plain-speaking, down-to-earth, jargon-free style. Listen to enjoy, while learning at the same time.

There were many songs sung around campfires in Comanche villages praising his fierceness in battle.
