This is a book of plain-spoken wisdom dedicated to the first one hundred and all who followed. Joe McQ., a teacher of the Twelve Steps shares his experience, strength, and hope with all those recovering from addictions, all who want to recover, and all who love them.

Joe McQueany of Little Rock, Arkansas, has been a student of the Twelve Steps for forty-three years. As he put it, "through God's grace and the way this program works in my life, I haven't found it necessary to take a drink since March 10, 1962, and for that, I'm extremely grateful." For more than 15,000 days, his grattitude put him into action; he has carried the message to a half-million alcoholics throughout the world as Joe of the "Joe & Charlie" team.
