Book excerpt: In 1980 during his senior year at Wallace High School, Michael Strong was the starting point guard on the varsity basketball team and voted "Most Talented and Best All Around." But when Strong left his Bennettsville hometown for The Air Force after graduation, he had no idea that during the next 20 years he'd get married, father two children, travel to five of the world's seven continents - and become a drug addict. Strong, who lives in Baltimore and works a program manager for a facility for homeless veterans, chronicles his life in Strong Getting Stronger, a no holds barred autobiography that doesn't sugarcoat addiction but instead provides readers with a firsthand account of its destruction.
