Editorial Reviews: Product Description From rock-bottom to recovery-the son of veteran broadcaster Bill Moyers chronicles his life-shattering battle with addiction and the hard-won fight for recovery. Unabridged CDs - 12 CDs, 14 hours

Customer Reviews: Read 41 more reviews... Getting Out of the Shadows with Rigorous Honesty December 9, 2008 William Cope Moyers is an alcoholic and crack addict. It doesn't matter that he comes from a good family, that he earned a college degree, and that he was a writer for CNN. What matters is that after many attempts he is now a sober, contributing member of society. Growing up, William always felt as if he was in the shadows of his famous father Bill Moyers, one of the most well-known and respected journalists in the nation. The senior Moyers was the former White House press secretary during Lyndon B. Johnson's presidency. From that role he moved to several before he began his own production company, which produced documentaries. William went from a young boy with no cares in Wilmer, Texas to a boy with no faith after a severe thunderstorm stole his faith and his innocence. He began high school during which he started his love affair with drinking and experimenting with drugs. College, the ever-present endorsement for drinking and recreational drugs, was comfortable and allowed William's drinking problem to flourish. Upon graduating, he began working as a newspaper reporter. During this time, several incidents occurred that demonstrated lack of control where drink and drugs were concerned. And several times William, unable to cope with life on life's terms, moved to a new city with a new job. Finally, William hit bottom and ended up in a detox and mental hospital in New York City. His wife, father, and mother were bewildered when he shared the truth about his addiction. An alcohol and drug rehab in Minnesota called Hazelden was the next stop. It was in St. Paul that William was introduced to recovery and was taught the tools or `medication' that would help alleviate his disease - one day at a time. However, as evidenced by the progressive nature of this disease, if someone is not ready to get sober, they will not. William was able to resist sobriety until he was flat on his back in an Atlanta crack house several years later. Until the younger Moyers was able to be rigorously honest about his disease and where the disease had taken him, he was unable to get and stay sober. Similarly, when he was not only honest about his disease, but also accepted it, he was able to step out of the shadows of his famous father, let go of the resentments, and walk with purpose. Today, William is a husband, father, son, brother, and friend because he remembers that he is an alcoholic and addict. Without rigorous honesty in his life he is unable to be a husband, father, son, brother, and friend. Without rigorous honesty, he'll end up back into the shadows. And without rigorous honesty, William is unable to walk with purpose. Had Me Until The End October 21, 2008 Moyer's memoir of addiction is compelling and gritty -- right up until the end, when it turns preachy. It's nice for Moyers that he was able to use religion to help him get clean and sober, but his narrative would have been far better if he had simply told the story and not tried to convert readers. Excellent October 3, 2008 The purchase I made was everything listed when I bought it. It was in perfect conditon, and look forward to doing business with them in the future! Thank you! A must read October 3, 2008 Any compulsive should read William's journey to sobriety. I really believe it could help especially those who keep failing. Also a must read for family members and friends. Understanding how much they lie and hide is such an important part of their healing. William is so honest about what he did in those terrible years, it can't help but help others be honest. Midge Broken August 14, 2008 This is a very good book and highly recommended for family members and others dealing with addiction. Also good for addicts to read. Very informative and I have recommended it to many others. Good insight to what the addict goes through and the effects on family etc.
