First Edition Signed
Hardcover. Condition: Like New. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. First Edition. Inscribed "God Bless You Bill Moss" on attached bookplate. Signed copies rarely offered. Part memoir and part inspirational reader, It's Never Too Late details William Moss's journey (1920-2017) from small-town Texas to a stint in Hollywood (as an actor and producer, known for The Big Cat, Kilroy was Here, and Let's Go Steady), and onward to the height of business successes in Texas and New York, and at the center of political power in Washington, DC. Late in life, however, the endless martinis in exclusive clubs come to feel empty, and the author begins to align his life closer to God, culminating in finding the love partner of his life and later realizing, at the age of 85, that he is an alcoholic. So begins his road to recovery. Having turned around his life, the author not only offers his story, but thoughts, inspirational prayers, and scriptures that have helped in his journey and that will prove useful for anyone in recovery. William Moss was born Odessa, Texas in 1920. He has acted in Hollywood films, founded a television production company, helmed The Petroleum corporation and William Moss Oil corp., served on the Board of Trustees and several other committees at American University, and, among numerous other political roles, served as chairman of former President George H. W. Bush's Drug Advisory council. Signed by Author.
