Chuck C. from Laguna Beach CA speaking at the Texas State Convention in San Antonio TX in June of 1963. Chuck is one of my favorite old timey AA speakers, he is the author of the much loved book "A New Pair of Glasses". Chuck got sober in 1946 and he died a sober member of AA in 1984 and his wife Elsa C was a long time member of al-Anon. For a recording this old it is excellent quality.

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.
