From Gary Reiswig's story of his ancestral roots in a small German Town, to Dr. Alois Alzheimer's discovery of the disease, to the Reiswig's triumphs and tragedies on their Oklahoma farm, to a modern-day congressional hearing room, this book offers profound insight into the devastating world of Alzheimer's, and hope for the development of a cure.
