Description:
How It Worked: The Story of Clarence H. Snyder and The Early Days of Alcoholics Anonymous in Cleveland, Ohio is a deeply insightful and historically significant book chronicling the life of Clarence H. Snyder, the founder of the third A.A. group in the world and a key figure in the expansion of Alcoholics Anonymous in Cleveland, Ohio. Written by Mitchell K., a former sponsee of Clarence, this book offers an in-depth, factual history of A.A. in Cleveland, making it accessible and easy to understand for the general reader.
Clarence Snyder, a pioneer in the A.A. movement, is credited with introducing many important practices that are still used in the A.A. program today, including writing a pamphlet on sponsorship and initiating beginners' classes. His Cleveland Central Bulletin even predates the famous A.A. Grapevine. This book also reveals the strong personal relationship between Clarence and his sponsor, Dr. Bob S. (a co-founder of Alcoholics Anonymous), and highlights the growth of A.A. in the early years.
