The Last One Writes the Book by Ken Livingston

This is the true story of all persons and incidents in this book. The book specifically tells the story of many residents of a small Iowa Town that circumstances brought together to share the grief and sorrow of the deaths of several and the joy and good times shared by all of them. The second half of the book tells the true story of the author, his alcoholism and the accompanying crazy behavior; and how through over 42 years of sobriety, he came to lead a wholesome, good life.
