"A memoir is different than an autobiography in that it allows the author to explore a slice of their life. In this book, David shares his story from the age of 6–23. It is a story about growing up and of his struggles with an alcoholic father." The book explores the concept of salvage as defined by David’s father—“used, broken, and worn, but too good to throw away.” A clean very presentable copy.
