Publisher Description
Who are the other “key players” in the history of Alcoholics Anonymous? There are the co-founders, of course, Bill Wilson and Dr. Bob Smith. And there’s Dr. William Silkworth, Bill’s doctor at Towns Hospital. And Marty Mann, one of the first women in AA, and the founder of the National Council on Alcoholism. And Clarence Snyder, who started the first AA meeting in Cleveland. And many, many more fascinating men and women. Key Players in AA History by bob k not only tells us about these people, but in the process also provides a fresh understanding of the fellowship of Alcoholics Anonymous. The book is well researched and a true pleasure to read. As Ernie Kurtz and Bill White put it at the end of their Foreword for this wonderful and engaging book: "Let the stories begin".

Wow !!! Outstanding !!! Hot Diggety !!!
Bob K’s book, Key Players In AA History, is a grand slammer, a last minute game-saving interception, a goal scored as the final buzzer buzzes. In other words, it is beyond compare. Enshrouding his stories of the key players in AA History with exceptional scholarship, laced with humerous observations, which easily sprout from his easy-going writing style, Bob K’s book is a must-read for any secular member of AA, who wants insight into the personalities of those most responsible for our foundational beginnings. His style can be described as delightfully arch with utmost respect and dignity. I particularly resonate with his last Chapter 32, Anonymity in the 21st Century.
