The history of AA as it was begun in Akron and spread throughout the world may primarily be found in three books published by AA World Services, Inc: AA Comes of Age (© 1957, 1985), Dr Bob and the Good Oldtimers (© 1980) and Pass It On (© 1984).
We urge all AAs and others interested in the history of Alcoholics Anonymous to read the three volumes mentioned above. We fervently believe that it is only by understanding our history, especially the origins of our Steps, Traditions and Concepts for World Service, that we will be able to avoid repeating the mistakes of the past.

Understanding Alcoholics Anonymous and Spirituality – GSO Press Release
Dear friends,
It is a common misconception that Alcoholics Anonymous is a religious-based or Christian organization, but that is not the case. In fact, a fundamental principle of A.A. is that the Fellowship is not affiliated with any religion, nor is it allied with any sect, denomination, politics, organization, or institution. In A.A., each person determines their own pathway in their recovery from alcoholism. Click here to read more.
In Fellowship,
