The Shoe Leather Treatment: The Inspiring Story of Bill Thomas's Triumphant Nine-Year Fight for Survival in a State Hospital for the Criminally In

The shoe leather treatment: The inspiring story of Bill Thomas's triumphant nine-year fight for survival in a state hospital for the criminally insane as told to S. L. Stebel It has been quite an experience to personally have known Bill Thomas for the past 38+ years. We lived together, worked together, and are still the best of friends after all these years. It is my deepest desire to keep this book on the shelves for the wonderful insight he has retained all these years, that others may realize that they can go on living happily and healthfully for the years that lie ahead as Bill has managed to do, all the time passing it on to the rest of us.

I read this book many years ago and have not been able to forget it nor what this man went through. This is a true story of how Mr. Thomas was misdiagnosed and abusively treated in the mental institution. A must, must read for those involved in the care of the emotionally disturbed.
