THE SALESMAN

from Big Book Podcast

The 15th story from the Personal Stories section of the first edition of Alcoholics Anonymous published in 1939. Entitled “The Salesman”, it was printed only in the first edition of the Big Book. It’s one of those stories that listeners may be hearing for the first time that prominently feature AA co-founder Dr. Bob S. and other early members of AA personally helping another alcoholic achieve sobriety. Howard L, sober since 1988, presents an inspired reading of this story and encourages listeners to revisit earlier podcast episodes that feature the main chapters of the Big Book.
