Group of Drunks

By Rick McKinney

This book is not AA-approved literature. Its sole purpose is to shed some light on the unbelievably beautiful history of Alcoholics Anonymous. Hopefully, it will provide members of AA a fun way to interact with one another while at the same time giving insight to how it all started.

AA was founded in 1935, but this play goes all the way back to 1926, which is when some believe the first spark of hope was given and led to the start of this wonderful fellowship that has saved so many lives.

The events and people listed within this book are all very real. The dialogue used is fictional and meant to help bring life to these monumental events.

This book is dedicated to Glenn and Dougald. I will spend the rest of my life trying to help half as many people as each of you have in the program of Alcoholics Anonymous. Thanks for showing me the way.
