This well-preserved copy of “Twenty-Four Hours a Day” offers a window into the early years of the modern recovery movement. First published in 1954, this seminal work has become a cornerstone of Alcoholics Anonymous and other twelve-step programs. Its straightforward meditations, one for each hour of the day, provide practical guidance and spiritual solace for those grappling with addiction. The 1975 revised edition reflects the evolving understanding of alcoholism and the growing popularity of the twelve-step approach.
While the book’s authorship is officially anonymous, in keeping with AA tradition, it is widely attributed to Richmond Walker, a pioneering figure in the recovery community. His insights, distilled from personal experience and the collective wisdom of early AA members, offer a profound yet accessible perspective on the daily struggle against alcoholism. This copy’s well-preserved condition and revised content make it a compelling artifact for collectors interested in the history of addiction treatment and the enduring legacy of the twelve-step philosophy.
