"Alcoholics Anonymous Comes of Age." Here is an inside and wide-angled view of A.A., a movement unique in its spiritual impact and social influence. It is for all who are interested to know the history of how A.A. started, how its principles of Recovery, Unity, and Service were evolved, and by what means this fellowship has grown and spread its message around the world. In addition, there is revealed here a wealth of anecdote and incident that illustrates the dramatic power of the basic methods of A.A. The first part of the book presents a panoramic sketch of the historic St. Louis Convention at which the fellowship of A.A. came of age and assumed full responsibility for all its affairs. The second part includes three talks, edited and enlarged, on the history of A.A. Recovery, Unity and Service, which were given by co-founder Bill W. at the St. Louis gathering. The third part is devoted to addresses of a number of A.A.'s friends, all of them notable in their several fields: Dr. Harry Tiebout, psychiatrist, Dr. W. W. Bauer of the American Medical Association, Father Edward Dowling of the Jesuit order, Dr. Samuel Shoemaker, Episcopal clergyman, and Mr. Bernard B. Smith, New York attorney and recently Chairman of the General Service Board of A.A. These friends tell of their association with A.A., the part they played in its development, and their view of what the future holds for this society, now consisting (1980) of over 1,000,000 recovered alcoholics the world over.
