Pete Pettingill is a person in long term recovery from alcoholism since May, 2005 using a spiritual approach which includes the active coaching of men who desire recovery from alcoholism and addiction. He is active with the Triangle Club of Dover, New Hampshire, where he served as board president from 2019 – 2023. Founded in 1988, The Triangle Club provides wellness programs and hosts over thirty-five Twelve Step meetings every week.

Pete is a US Army veteran and a State University of New York graduate. He retired from a thirty-six-year commercial insurance claims career in 2022. Since retiring from the corporate life, Pete has published three historic novels and shares his historic research with town and county historical societies.

He recently published Sunday Morning Mountain, a literary fiction novel about one person’s journey from addiction to recovery. “Without recovery, I would be sitting on a barstool telling anyone who would listen about the book I was going to write,” Pete says. His current fictional work in progress is inspired by the June 24, 1970 Portsmouth, NH construction accident that killed four workers.
