Second only to the Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous, Twenty-Four Hours a Day is a staple for millions of people in recovery from addiction worldwide. In this elegant reproduction of the original working manuscript of this mainstay meditation book, you'll see the thoughts and insights of recovery luminary Richmond Walker evolve through his creative process. The high-quality four-colour scans of the original manuscript pages feature handwritten edits, rewrites, notes of inquiry, page cuts, and section shuffles that offer powerful insights into the writing of this recovery classic. Excerpts from God Calling , one of Walker's key sources, are featured and compared with the final manuscript he adapted for Twenty-Four Hours a Day . Recovery historian Damian McElrath enlightens readers as he traces the origins of Twenty-Four Hours a Day , exploring the spiritual foundations of its messages and bringing to light little-known facts about Richmond Walker's life. A selection of writings by Richmond Walker and transcripts from never-before-published talks are also included.
