In this collection of Grapevine stories, sober women and men describe the transformations sobriety can bring as they practice the principles of AA in all aspects of their lives. Many discover that happiness is a by-product of giving without any demand for return. Others embrace the present with gratitude to claim moments of real peace — “a quiet place in bright sunshine,” as Bill W. put it in the essay that gave the impetus to this book. We invite you to join the journey.
This item is also available as an ebook on Apple Books, at Barnes & Noble and on Amazon, and on Kobo.

B-30 – Taxes included.
This anthology contains 56 stories retired from the first three editions of the Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous.
The membership of Alcoholics Anonymous continues to grow and change, but these stories from the past will never be outdated. The essential A.A. story — “what we used to be like, what happened, and what we are like now” — is a constant. That timeless formula for A.A. talks rings just as true in these stories from our history as it does today in the meeting around the corner.
B-20 – Taxes included.
The “Twelve and Twelve” contains 12 essays by Bill W. that expand upon each of the Steps — the A.A. program of recovery — with helpful examples and personal insights, and another 12 that explain how the Traditions protect the unity of Alcoholics Anonymous.
Originally published in Grapevine in 1952, Twelve Steps and Twelve Traditions is used today by A.A. members and groups worldwide.
