“By 1937, some of us realized that AA needed a standard literature. There would have to be a book … Well, we did quarrel violently over the preparation and distribution of that book. In fact, it took five years for the clamor to die down. Should any AAs dream that the old-timers who put the book together went about in serene meditation and white robes, then they had best forget it.”

AA Co-Founder, Bill W., November 1951, “Services Make AA Tick”, The Language of the Heart
