NEW VISION FOR A SCULPTOR – 2nd Edition

This is a relatively rare story, as it is one of only five stories that was published exclusively in the 2nd Edition. There's also nothing known about the author except what can be gleaned from the story itself: It was written by Fred, who got sober in 1947. Nonetheless, it is a fascinating testimonial of one of the early members who found sobriety in the fellowship during Alcoholics Anonymous' formative years in the mid 1940s. This is the 72nd episode of the Big Book Podcast. It's story number 12 (the last story) in Part 2 of the Personal Stories section of the Second Edition of Alcoholics Anonymous published in 1955. The Second Edition is out-of-copyright and in the public domain. Howard L, sober since January 1, 1988, presents this inspired reading of the Big Book and encourages listeners to revisit earlier podcast episodes that feature the main chapters and stories in the First Edition of the Big Book.
