An adventurous and free-spirited young man, Winston "Win" Williams, was destined for adventure. He spent years sailing around the world, experiencing life many only see through the movies or TV. From Tahiti to New Guinea and the far east, to the Indian Ocean, Africa, and the Philippines, Win had it all under a cloud of sails. Until he didn't.
This dramatic memoir brings us from the highs of life on the seas to the lows of addiction and, devastatingly, losing it all. Win shares openly and honestly his experience of recovery from alcoholism, and the restoration of relationships and a new life, to offer hope to those who are struggling with the disease of addiction. Now sailing happy, joyous and free under a cloud of recovery for over forty years, he knows there is a solution. Travel around the world with Win to find it.
Born in 1935, Winston Williams has been sober since 1976. After sailing around the world, he became a senior advertising executive and freelance writer and photographer, most notably for National Geographic. He became a commercial boat captain and has devoted much time to helping recovering alcoholics. He has four adult children, twelve grandchildren, and three great-grandchildren. He resides in Naples, Florida and looks optimistically to the future.
