Hollywood legend Kirk Douglas shares with readers his experiences and inspirations in a punishing battle to return to life after a stroke. His affliction attracted attention worldwide during the Academy Awards when he accepted a Lifetime Achievement Award to a standing ovation from a tearful Hollywood crowd. It was his first public appearance since the debilitating attack. Douglas discusses his anguish at his plight and at the same time, he offers advice, exercises and lessons he learned while in recovery that lifted him from deep depression back to a joyful, loving husband, father and grandfather.

His closing is particularly poignant as Douglas admits this will most likely be his final book.
