This book has been reading my mail! I have related to it so much, as I am the granddaughter of an alcoholic, raised by a controlling co-dependent, and engaged to an alcoholic (27 years sober). I nodded my head yes on almost every page and it answered questions I never knew I had. It helped explain things in my life I didn't know was the result of alcoholism. It breaks down the 12 steps and traditions and was actually recommended in an Al-Anon meeting. It has helped me understand myself, as well as the alcoholic. It's easy to read yet thorough. A chapter is written on Al-Anon's history too. Part two of the book is all about people (both male and female) sharing their experiences, strength and hope. I really do recommend this book as it has helped me become aware of how alcohol has affected my life so profoundly, and gives me hope to know that I'm far from being alone.Read full review
I can't believe how helpful this book has been in my AA/NA journey so far! I got the book for my mom but now I think I am going to buy a seperate one! It has really helped me realize where past love relationships went wrong. I am so happy to get this beautiful chance at sobriety! Thanks for the affordable life saving material! This is an amazing book I had no idea was thrown together by Bill W's wife. This is timeless.Thanks Ebay for the amazing deal on amazing literature! God bless!

This book was recently bought for a Al-anon group to put in their library. The book is designed to help family and friends of alcoholics. It is how ever a self help book but has a lot of information on the affects of the disease alcoholism. The book was written by the author of Alcoholics Anonymous, Bill Wilson's wife Lois. How Al-anon Works has many suggestions on how to overcome the affects of alcoholism. Many men and women have been affected to the brink of insanity. With the help from this book and its suggestions you can overcome these affects. I would reccomend this book to anyone that has been affected by this mind boggling disease.
This is a great book for those who have friends or family with Alcohol related problems. It teaches you how the Al-Anon program works. I can honestly say Al-Anon has saved my life (actually given me a life worth living). If you love an alcoholic get this book and give Al-Anon a try.
