Thread: The Little Red Book

The Little Red Book - Google Books The Little Red Book was written by Ed Webster with alot of input from Dr Bob. I hear many say that they need no other guide than the Big Book. And I do respect that, but to get input from others is a great help to me. Your thoughts?

Well Steve, I do my best to practice a simple program, so my response to this might be a little more simple than you'd like. Yes, I'll agree that the Steps are in the Big Book and before the LRB was written, obviously there were plenty of folks who took the Steps from the BB and stayed sober. I've even heard oldtimers tell newcomers to get a Big Book and just do the Steps as they're suggested, that's all they'll...

People who try that are seeking the "easier, softer...

Hi all, The Little Red Book is right next to our BB at my home-group. Ed Webster was a member of the Nicollet Group in Mpls. which is my homegroup. Go figure. This group also had something to do with starting the AA groups up North and into Canada is my understanding. Our older members are extremely proud of their history. Coming into this group 11 months ago was the best thing that ever happened to me. In my group alone we must have over 500+...
