Realizing Religion by Samuel M. Shoemaker. This book was initially released in the early 1920’s. This book was published in 1933 by Association Press in New York. This is the first book written by Sam Shoemaker.

 This book is in very good condition. There is light wear to the edges/corners and spine. There is pen markings inside the front cover. A small portion of the first blank page of the book has been cut and removed. There is underlining on the first page of the Foreword. There is no other writing or markings in the book.

Sam Shoemaker was a pioneer in the Oxford group movement and is well known in the recovery community as he was AA cofounder Bill Wilson’s spiritual advisor during the vital pioneering days of AA. Bill W. wrote: “Dr. Sam Shoemaker was one of A.A.’s indispensables. Had it not been for his ministry to us in our early time, our Fellowship would not be in existence today.” Shoemaker’s ideas in Realizing Religion match those of the A.A. program as Bill Wilson saw it in 1938 while writing the Big Book.
