DOWNLOAD EBOOKCrack. The most terrifying word during the 80s besides Hammer pants. It destroyed families, friends, marriages, churches, pimps, prostitutes, Mayors and Senators and the life of one inner city kid from a middle-class family, Russell Tolson, Jr. In this unflinching memoir, Russell takes us where no one has ever dared to go before - inside the mind of a crackhead. With vivid, first-hand accounts of his sordid adventures in 'Crack-ington DC' during the 80s and 90s, the peak of the crack epidemic, Russell recounts how the powerful little white rocks almost sent him to the grave. His stories are so poignant, funny, ridiculous and downright entertaining, they'll make you shake your head and... wanna smoke some crack. BUT DON'T SMOKE CRACK! Just read this book instead and you will be catapulted into the dark, steamy, seductive, sell-a-door-knob-for-a-hit world that Russell and his wife, Kathy, found themselves trapped in. They reveal their week-long binge sessions, near-death experiences, shocking 'come to Jesus' moments, and how God healed and delivered them in an instant. Now a church minister, Russell's prison-to-the-pulpit story proves not even crack is too powerful for God. "You can do all things through Christ Jesus who strengthens you."

DOWNLOAD EBOOKCrack Cocaine is a series of poems and memoirs about my drug addiction. Crack, cocaine, heroin, alcohol, street life and prison. The journey begins at age 12 with being committed to a mental institution due to violent behavior. It progresses into street life, marijuana and alcohol. At age 13, I am introduced to heroin alcohol and theft. Eventually I become a heroin addict and criminal. On my 16th birthday I wake up in a cell on Rikers Island, the worst jail in NYC. At age 18, I am sentenced to 5 years in maximum security prison. Upon my release from Sing Sing Prison, I return to street life heroin, cocaine and alcohol. I meet Joey, who introduced me to crack cocaine. I become homeless and sleep on the street for two years. I become degraded, experience violence and murder and the impact of drug addiction. Joey was murdered at age 22. Joey always had a smile. His body was found beaten, burned and stuffed into a black garbage bag. At the time of this writing I am 60 years. My last experience with drugs and alcohol was on Sept 28, 1988, at 8:30 PM. I was with a drug dealer named Ralph. I have been drug and alcohol free ever since. In 1986 as I slept on the streets of NYC, I wrote a book of poetry about crack, heroin and the things I saw. I have held on to it dearly. My book, Crack Cocaine, is my collection of those poems, complimented by personal addiction memoirs. A true story written with graphic content, in explicit detail. I invite you to experience my journey of drugs addiction, street life, prison, pain and survival.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKBill Clegg had a thriving business as a literary agent, a supportive partner, trusting colleagues, and loving friends when he walked away from his world and embarked on a two-month crack binge. He had been released from rehab nine months earlier, and his relapse would cost him his home, his money, his career, and very nearly his life. What is it that leads an exceptional young mind want to disappear? Clegg makes stunningly clear the attraction of the drug that had him in its thrall, capturing in scene after scene the drama, tension, and paranoiac nightmare of a secret life--and the exhilarating bliss that came again and again until it was eclipsed almost entirely by doom. He also explores the shape of addiction, how its pattern--not its cause--can be traced to the past. Portrait of an Addict as a Young Man is an utterly compelling narrative--lyrical, irresistible, harsh, honest, and beautifully written--from which you simply cannot look away.
