Descriere

Just before Christmas 1994, Senator George McGovern received the terrible news that his 45-year-old daughter, Terry, had frozen to death while in an alcoholic stupor. With courage and compassion, McGovern addresses the private tragedy that was Terry's affliction, providing a valuable contribution to the understanding of alcoholism and personal loss.
