Re: FW: [AAHistoryLovers2] The Spiritual Experience
¿ªÔÆÌåÓýI had read somewhere that it wasnt until 1959, the 4th or 5th printing of the 2nd edition that it was changed to these steps. I think its awesome so many people have so many early editions. ?

Hi,
I checked my first printing of the 12 & 12 ( April 1953 with the code D-C) and the wording in step 12 is "these steps" and yet the first printing of the second edition of the Big Book has, in How it Works, step 12, the wording is "those steps" and that was published two years later in 1955. Oh well, just another "huh ?' in our history.

I don't believe the 12&12 was affected. Tommy H |
