We, of Alcoholics Anonymous, are more than one hundred men and women who have recovered from a seemingly hopeless state of mind and body. To show other alcoholics precisely how we have recovered is the main purpose of this book. For them, we hope these pages will prove so convincing that no further authentication will be necessary. We think this account of our experiences will help everyone to better understand the alcoholic. Many do not comprehend that the alcoholic is a very sick person. And besides, we are sure that our way of living has its advantages for all.

The preceding paragraph is an excerpt from the Foreword to the First Edition of the book, Alcoholics Anonymous (Big Book).  If you are an alcoholic of the hopeless variety, you are in the right place.  We are a group of recovered alcoholics residing in southern New Jersey, who come together weekly to read, study and practice the 12 Steps of Alcoholics Anonymous as outlined in the Big Book.  We do the steps exactly as the first 100 did them by following the clear-cut directions provided in the Big Book.  We welcome you to our site.  If you have any questions or comments please contact us at: info@bigbookstepstudy.net
