Böcker av Chris Park

From the not-so-best selling author of Drink This Book While Reading Your Morning Coffee comes an exploration into the world of addiction, despair, and hope. But this book is not really about drugs at all... It's a How to Guide of sorts.A book for the pill heads, the heroin addicts, the meth junkies. The insomniacs and day-sleepers. The absent fathers, the overbearing mothers. The prodigal sons, the destitute daughters. The hopeless ones. The ones facing the fire. The ones trying to make a way where there is no way. The ones looking for second chances and escape routes. And maybe...it's for you.

This unusual and beautifully illustrated book gives us a unique window on 600 years of Dales history. Looking through the eyes of contemporary writers, we can see how perceptions, attitudes and even the landscape itself have changed over time.
