Description
90 Meetings in 90 Days (1984) by Ernie K. is a classic recovery journal-style text that captures the spirit of early Alcoholics Anonymous practices and traditions. Structured as a personal “journey/journal,” the book ties the daily recovery process to A.A.’s foundational philosophy of living “One Day at a Time.”
In the introduction, Ernie K. frames the work as a personal reflection on A.A.’s Eleventh and Twelfth Traditions, emphasizing anonymity, humility, and the principle of placing “principles before personalities.” He connects the very concept of “journey” and “journal” to the day-at-a-time nature of sobriety, offering insight into how recovery is both highly personal and universally applicable.
This book remains meaningful for those exploring recovery literature outside of “official” A.A. publications, offering a perspective that resonates with both new and seasoned members. Collectors value it as an authentic voice of recovery from the 1980s and a tangible link to the lived experience of sobriety in that period.
