I lost my book, can I download, or buy it?

They gave me a big book at my first meeting... I need it again.. Is there an e-book I can get on my phone or place to order one I would prefer it on my phone to read.

You can read it on-line. I'll grab the link.

Here's a link to read it online:
A.A. Big Book

Here's the Amazon.com link to purchase it:
Amazon.com: Alcoholics Anonymous: The Story of How Many Thousands of Men and Women Have Recovered from Alcoholism: AAWS: Books

Amazon is usually pretty good about saying if a book is available in electronic format (they have a device called Kindle for e-books) and this is NOT listed as available in that format. I haven't checked the iTunes store or any other e-book sites, though.

You can download the frist edition here Free Stuff! as well as some other stuff like "as bill sees it".

There is somewhere where you can download the 4th edition too but I can't remember where.

You can probably get one at another meeting, too.. I don't participate in AA, but I also think you can get e-versions thru amazon too at low cost (but the free links above are great !)

They're cheaper at a meeting. Groups sell them at cost ($6 or $6.50 -- for a hardcover!!).

Isn't that cheaper than a six pack these days?

Peace & Love,

Yes, but you can't download it there.
The OP can download it (from MY link) and then read it on the phone/palmtop etc.
