Marty opens the meeting at the Sunday Night Speakers held in Seattle, he got sober in Aug 2014 and this meeting is from June of 2016. Amy is the main speaker she became sober in 2004. Martys speak sounds slightly harsh to me, I cleaned the recording up as much as poss. but if its annoying you jump ahead 15 min to Amy, hers was much smoother.

The Little Red Book

In 1942, Ed W. began teaching the “Twelve Step Study” classes that helped the Minneapolis Group achieve their 75% recovery rate. Then in 1946, he and Barry C. (The first sober A.A. in the state) published the lectures used for these classes as a book. Initially titled The Twelve Steps, it was affectionately nicknamed “The little red book.”

Back in print for the first time in more than 65 years, the original 1946 edition reveals firsthand how some of A.A.’s earliest members made the program their way of life. Everyone from newcomers to oldtimers will find a wealth of practical experience in this comprehensive guide to the Twelve Steps.
