BONUS GIFT SET: This first-edition copy ships ready to give: the book, a matching Walk Softly & Carry a Big Book decal, a wooden Pocket Hug token, and a resealable Mylar bag.


An essential collection of 12-Step wisdom in one book.

This is the reference people reach for when they want the slogans, sayings, stories, and meeting lines that have been passed around the tables for decades in Alcoholics Anonymous, Narcotics Anonymous, Al-Anon, and other 12-Step fellowships. Oldtimers call it wisdom in shorthand. Sponsors use it. Newcomers borrow it. Home groups leave it out for anyone who needs a line that fits.


What’s inside:

  • Slogans, Sayings & Super One-Liners — the classics, the hard-hitting lines, and the quotes that still stop a room
  • I Heard It Through the Groupvine — stories and remarks from Oldtimers and speakers you will not find collected anywhere else
  • Acronymity — recovery acronyms, including ones you may not know
  • Freudian Sips (Slips) — the memorable slips of the tongue from the rooms
  • Higher Powered Pages — classic prayers, plus the history of the Serenity Prayer and its many variations


Who it’s for:

  • A gift for a sponsee, sponsor, speaker, or recovery friend
  • Meeting topics, icebreakers, and talks
  • A copy for home, the car, the Alano club, or a treatment-center shelf
  • Anyone in Alcoholics Anonymous, Narcotics Anonymous, or Al-Anon who wants the fellowship’s language in one place


This listing is the original first edition, now packed as a gift set. A practical book you can use, and an easy gift you can hand over.
