Description

First published in Great Britain in 1985 by Constable and Company Limited, Frank Buchman: A Life is Garth Lean’s comprehensive biography of the American evangelist Frank N. D. Buchman (1878–1961). Buchman founded the Oxford Group, a global spiritual renewal movement whose ideas—personal inventory, restitution, and reliance on a higher power—shaped the early principles of Alcoholics Anonymous. This volume offers historical context and primary-source detail valued by RecoverySpeakers collectors and AA historians alike.
