The Golden Book Of Excuses

Author: Father John Doe

Excerpt:
“The habit of excuse is as old as the human race.  It began with the first man and the first woman – Adam and Eve. And ever since that time, history is filled with people who, in order to justify themselves, in order to escape from responsibility, in order to minimize their guilt, or in order to salve their conscience,  excused themselves.”

Hazelden is extremely proud to once again offer this early classic recovery series.  The Golden Books series is composed of fourteen booklets written by the late Father Ralph Pfau, known originally as Father “John Doe” who was an immensely popular lecturer and author.  These treasured booklets offer thoughtful, positive advice on almost every human experience.  Helpful in examining character defects or in exploring the realm of spirituality, these booklets are firmly grounded in the principles of Alcoholics Anonymous.
