"A DROP OF THE HARD STUFF - a Sea Captain's recovery from alcoholism"
This autobiographical work takes us into the three worlds of Captain Peter Wright. His childhood world where oppressive Catholic discipline and bigotry fueled by his mother's marriage to a Protestant, instituted fear.  His seafaring world of adventure while sailing as Mate and Master, and the dark world of alcoholism where he gradually withdrew into his private hell and ended his drinking on the streets of San Francisco in the company of the city's lost and homeless.  Peter Wright says, "Writing this book evened out the playing field."
Peter's humor and rigorous honesty will encourage and inspire.  Available from B & N, Borders and Amazon in hardback at $32.99, soft-back at $22.99, and directly from the author at $25.00 hardback and $16.00 soft-back + shipping $1.75.  Peter Wright  - Email: masterm@snowcrest.net
