Robin W of Chicago IL tells his story at the 2nd Annual Rochester Roundup held in New York in March of 1993, he has one of those stories that is remarkable in the difference of before and after. I heard him tell his story at the Living Sober Roundup in San Francisco sometime in the late 1980's and I never forgot him, he makes quite an impression. NSFW

I have one of these and it is one of my favorite items, a really excellent and useful for book study meetings or as a gift to a newcomer who is going to be heading to one.
The First 164 pages of The Big Book with lined blank pages opposite each page of text for note taking.
Paragraph numbers along side the text for easy reference. Entire Original Manuscript (about) including the stories. Easy to read retyped version. Includes paragraph numbers corresponding to the modern text for easy comparison.
Footnotes explaining historical and obscure references in the text.
Footnotes documenting all 79 differences between the modern text and the original 1st printing text of the 1st 164 pages (about). Yes, believe it or not, the basic text has been changed 79 times since it was first published.
Two place keeping ribbons. Special "lay flat" binding.
