“Sister Ignatia: Angel of Alcoholics Anonymous” is a compelling biography of Sister Ignatia Gavin, a Catholic nun who played a pivotal role in the early years of Alcoholics Anonymous (AA). Through her compassionate work at St. Thomas Hospital in Akron, Ohio, Sister Ignatia became known as the “Angel of Alcoholics Anonymous” for her support of countless individuals battling alcoholism. Her unwavering dedication and innovative approach to treatment, which included offering spiritual guidance alongside medical care, helped lay the foundation for AA’s lasting success and the recovery of thousands.
This book offers readers a detailed account of Sister Ignatia's life, her involvement with AA, and the profound impact she had on the lives of those struggling with addiction.

Darrah paints a portrait of Sister Ignatia’s devotion to healing and her role in a movement that changed the course of addiction treatment forever.
