Alcoholics Anonymous by J.E. Doherty - 3rd Printing from 1957

Alcoholics Anonymous by J.E. Doherty, C. SS. R. This booklet is a 3rd Printing from 1957. This booklet was published by Liguorian Pamphlets, Redemptorist Fathers, Liguori, Missouri.

This piece by Doherty was originally published in The Liguorian, a Catholic monthly magazine in 1954.

Here is an excerpt from the booklet:

“THE MOST exciting spiritual movement in this country today, outside of the Catholic Church, is Alcoholics Anonymous. It is neither a church nor a sect, but its members, rescued from the bottomless pit of helpless drunkenness, now spend themselves in relentless pursuit of other inebriates and derelicts abandoned by society as hopeless. When successful, they lead them to a religious experience or conversion which is lasting, and the number thus saved is spectacular. To a Catholic it is most impressive that their method of dealing with souls derives directly from the inherited wisdom of traditional Christianity, and in its essence consists of persuading them to abandon themselves to God in humble prayer.“
