my steve sax connection, the child abuse recovery story with a twist

In his chilling, yet inspiring and critically-acclaimed autobiography, MY STEVE SAX CONNECTION, Alan Waldman vividly illustrates how the psychological abuse inflicted by his alcoholic father halted his emotional growth. To overcome his scars and rebuild his psyche, he closely identifies with former major league baseball star Steve Sax, who shared a strong bond with his father. Through his identification with Sax, Waldman discovers that parents' unconditional love is the essential ingredient necessary to create a child's positive self-image.
