Customer Reviews

A greatly overlooked recovery book

This is a Hazelden book specifically written as a study aid to The Big Book. It helps to clarify and illuminate the 12 step process and is often used by sponsors as they guide their sponsees through the steps. It is a tool which, if used in addition to (and not in replacement of)the basic program literature, may add a layer of depth and understanding to the step process. This book is also used as the basis of step-study groups in some areas. It appears to have been used to a much greater extent in the past than it is now and it deserves a second look for what it may have to offer.

Brought me to A.A.

I was reading the Little Red Book, and the chapter on Step 2, made me evaluate my drinking, and enter the doors of A.A. That was 30 years ago May 3, and I have never left.

In Depth Insites into the Twelve Steps

This little red book has so much more to offer in the Spiritual realm of tha AA Twelve Steps than the Twelve and Twelve alone. In combination with the 12 & 12, nothing is left in doubt!

A Great Guide Through the Steps

The first time that I saw the steps. I thought I knew it all. When I learned that I didn't, I was scared. This book helped me and my sponsees through the steps by keeping them simple.
