In 1934, Ebby Thatcher called an old drinking buddy to tell him about the happiness he was finding in sobriety. His friend's name was Bill Wilson, and this book is the story of their life-long friendship. It is both a fascinating history of the formative years of Alcoholics Anonymous, as well as the bitter-sweet tale of the troubled man Bill W. always referred to as "my sponsor."
"Deeply informative and moving, a valuable contribution to the history of AA. A 'must' reading for anyone interested in one of the more fascinating chapters in AA's history."
--Nell Wing, Retired AA Archivist and Bill Wilson's Secretary
