Dancing Naked with the Rolling Stones - A Life in News and a Good-Bye to Booze (Hardcover, New)

During the fast-paced and fascinating years that Bill McIlwain spent as editor of some of North America's most prestigious newspapers, he met and worked with the great, the petty, the famous, the eccentric. He also confronted his problem with alcoholism. In Dancing Naked with the Rolling Stones, McIlwain tells both sides of the story-and how he learned to cope, finding peace and happiness in radical ways. His humble, humorous, thought-provoking account gives readers an intimate glimpse into American newspapering and, at the same time, into his own soul. From the heyday of Harry Guggenheim and Alicia Patterson's groundbreaking Newsday to Boston and Washington insider politics, from the world-changing events of the 1960s and '70s to the Sun Belt suburbs of the 1980s and '90s, Bill McIlwain's tales entertain and inspire.
