Please use your Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous
to look up the references listed in this document.
The context you find them in is very revealing as to
why so many so called "experts" would have you believe
you cannot recover. I have added Hyperlinks to the
First-Edition Big Book where ever possible. The truth

bitter end, blotting out the consiousness of our
intolerable situation as best we could.
about the Recovered Alcoholic are
"Pass It On", "Dr. Bob and the Good Old Timers", and "A.A. Comes of Age".
