He Won’t Get Far on Foot – John Callahan

An autobiography of John Callahan, who was a well-known cartoonist. His work is pretty edgy, some would call it insensitive (I wouldn’t).

He was a raging alcoholic from an early age. He describes in harrowing detail – and humor – his journey through the hell of alcoholism, which ended up with his being in a terrible drunken car accident, which then led to his struggle with being a quadriplegic, and eventually salvation through cartooning.

Highly entertaining book.
