Summary
In the Alcoholics Anonymous trilogy of revered figures, many people would name Clarence Snyder after Bill W. and Dr. Bob. Snyder chaired the first meeting known as Alcoholics Anonymous, coined the term AA, advocated opening meetings to women (something that Bill W. and Dr. Bob hesitated to do), and established the organization's first newsletter.

One of the AA members he sponsored was Mitchell K., whose book presents an intimate portrait of this pioneer of recovery.
