Breakdown, Recovery, and the Outdoors - Paperback

by Christopher Bremicker (Author)

Inheriting a love of the outdoors from his parents turned into the way out of a schizo-affective disorder the Vietnam War put Mike Reynolds through. The outdoors healed him as much as the therapy and medication his doctors at the veterans' hospital ordered. Without God's earth, Mike stood a snowball's chance in Hell of making it. But he did make it with a fishing rod, shotgun, skis, and his girlfriend's sobriety (helping him with his own). Her newborn daughter helped, too.
