In this presentation, William Schaberg, author of "Writing the Big Book," spends some time on the events that transpired in the three months between the writing of “There Is A Solution” and “More About Alcoholism.” He then points out how this chapter is basically a further elaboration on the diagnosis that Bill Wilson had offered in that earlier chapter - namely, that if you are a “real” alcoholic you have NO defense against picking up the first drink. Schaberg also shows the changes made to this chapter from its first draft in late-September 1938 to its publication in the Big Book on April 10, 1939.
