This story was printed only in the Second Editions, so it has remained largely unseen by those AAs who’ve otherwise been raised on the Third and Fourth Editions. As with the last story, the author of this story is unknown. A deep dive into AA history indicates little about this author, except the fact that he was a Canadian man who got sober in the middle to late 1940’s. But like many other anonymous stories, the obscurity of the author does not diminish the impact of his testimony. As you listen to it, perhaps for the first time, I think you’ll find many similarities to contemporary AA stories.
