Originally labeled "How It Works" and "Primary Purpose", these are really a loving walk through the history of AA. There is new evidence that shows that Carl Jung probably did not play as large a part in the founding of AA as is traditionally attributed. There is a need to reexamine the role the Emmanual Movement's Courtnay Baylor played as the man who directly helped Roland Hazard get sober. Ray was, apparently, not aware of this in his talk. The essential spirit of the AA history though is well presented even if some of the details about the personalities may not be completely accurate.
Sober since 11/24/1965, Ray takes a tour through a history of AA and begins to lay the foundation for his views on Singleness of Purpose.
