What the Early Worm Gets is an informative and surprising essay about a man and friend whom I use to work with and whom I looked up to as a mentor. It is an essay that gives facts as they relate to science through his own experience and hell. In his own perspective explains the difference between alcohol abuse and alcoholism.
