A 75th anniversary e-book version of the most important and practical self-help book ever written, Alcoholics Anonymous. Here is a special deluxe edition of a book that has changed millions of lives and launched the modern recovery movement: Alcoholics Anonymous. This edition not only reproduces the original 1939 text of Alcoholics Anonymous, but as a special bonus features the complete 1941 Saturday Evening Post article “Alcoholics Anonymous” by journalist Jack Alexander, which, at the time, did as much as the book itself to introduce millions of seekers to AA’s program. Alcoholics Anonymous has touched and transformed myriad lives, and finally appears in a volume that honors its posterity and impact.

These inspirational meditations, prayers, and stories are written by an Ojibwe Elder and alcohol and drug counselor to speak with clarity, wisdom, and care about the everyday experience of recovery. The author combines Ojibwe and Twelve Step spiritual principles and practices with stories from Indians at all stages of recovery to help readers navigate the challenges and rewards of living sober. Each of this book’s 52 meditations includes a short reflection, a related story "from the rooms" of AA, and seven prayers—one for every day of the week. Grounded in reliance on the Creator, the wisdom of Elders, and the support of the sober community, this unique collection is intended to provide daily strength and hope for the recovery journey and counteract the harsh realities of poverty, violence, and broken relationships that are too often fueled by alcohol and other drug use. Readers will recognize the value of spiritual laws like Honesty, Sharing, Kindness, and Strength as well as the power of traditional rituals such as offering tobacco with prayers. Whatever our culture, we can apply this book’s wisdom to our recovery and life.
This book is written in the belief that many Native substance abusers suffer because their cultural heritage is being swept away or because they have lost contact with it. While Alcoholics Anonymous and Narcotics Anonymous provide wonderful leadership to millions of people, they do not deal with the pain that can arise when cultures weaken and die or when people are cut off from their heritage. While not seeking to replace tools of recovery, such as Alcoholics Anonymous and Narcotics Anonymous, this book deals with the fact that people often lose the ability to cope when their cultures are under attack. The resulting pain can lead to substance abusers. If strengthened, however, the traditions of a people can help people regain their sobriety. The example of Handsome Lake, a Native leader who lived many years ago, demonstrates the power of tradition. Handsome Lake was an alcoholic near death who, at the last possible moment, regained his sobriety and invented a method that helped the Iroquois people overcome their alcoholism and restore their culture. This strategy was made up of two parts (1) reaffirming and strengthening the culture and (2) living a sober life while undoing past wrongs. This book is written to how how Handsome Lake’s inspirational example can help today's Native people who seek recovery from substance abuse.
