2000185077Amherst: University of Massachusetts Press 2000. Hardcover. VG/VG ex-library with labels and stamps on spine block inside front and rear covers and title page verso. Pages are very clean and clear. Navy cloth boards with gilt lettering; color illustrated dj mylar cover; xiv 206 pp. "William Griffith Wilson recently cited by Time magazine as one of the hundred most influential individuals of the twentieth century is better known to many as Bill W. cofounder of Alcoholics Anonymous. In Bill W. and Mr. Wilson Matthew J. Raphael presents a revealing new look at both the legendary Bill W. and the private Mr. Wilson who tried to live apart from his own celebrity." "In quest of a more historically accurate and complete account Raphael separates fact from fiction in the standard biographies of Wilson and finds reason to doubt the literal truth of some foundational A.A. stories. He also provides a context for Wilson's and thus A.A.'s key ideas in the work of William James Carl Jung and other modern thinkers. What emerges is an unvarnished portrait of a charismatic man and social visionary; whose true greatness is all the more apparent in view of his human imperfections." "Readers already familiar with Alcoholics Anonymous will find much to engage them. Others will discover A.A. and its cofounder from an insider's perspective."--Jacket.

Pirate adventure yarn adapted into a swashbuckling 1942 movie starring Tyrone Power and Maureen O'Hara. Although this copy was once part of the research library at Twentieth Century-Fox the studio that made the film there's no evidence to indicate that this particular book played any active role in its creation it was after all only "copy 3" -- but on the other hand I don't think it's at all unlikely that the book was at one time mere hundreds maybe only dozens of yards away from Tyrone Power and/or Maureen O'Hara.
