Contact seller5-star sellerVery Good (little wear & staining covers; contents clean & tight). 8vo., pictorial wraps; 94 pages First Edition. A scarce edition with no publication information. Possibly issued by Sen. George McGovern (D-South Dakota), with a tipped-in page bearing his name and contact information in Washington, DC. With a facsimile presentat…ion from McGovern on the same page: ?For Bill Swegan, who has sought to help alcoholics for the last 48 years with the admiration of George McGovern.? Kind of a mystery book, perhaps issued by Swegan? William E. Swegan [1918-2008] enlisted in the Army Air Corps and survived the Dec. 7, 1941 bombing of Hickam Army Air Base at Pearl Harbor. He was the principal spokesman of the early Alcoholics Anonymous movement, which stressed the psychological aspects of the twelve-step program. He founded the first government-run military alcoholism treatment program at Mitchel Air Force Base on Long Island and ran other alcoholic treatment programs in the military. On the night of December 12?13, 1994, McGovern's daughter, Teresa, fell into a snowbank in Madison, Wisconsin, while heavily intoxicated and died of hypothermia. McGovern revealed his daughter had battled her alcoholism for years and had been in and out of many treatment programs while having had one extended period of sobriety. He authored an account of her life, Terry: My Daughter's Life-and-Death Struggle with Alcoholism; published in 1996. He was big supporter of alcoholic treatment programs.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - William E. Swegan ('Sgt. Bill') was the major spokesman for the psychological wing of early Alcoholics Anonymous-that group within the newborn A.A. movement of the 1930's, 40's and 50's which stressed the psychotherapeutic side of the tw…elve step program instead of the spiritual side. This book is Swegan's major work, in which he lays out the psychiatric theories which formed the foundation of that variety of A.A. thought. He also talks about his association with Mrs. Marty Mann, Yev Gardner, E. M. Jellinek at the Yale School of Alcohol Studies, Bill Dotson (A.A. No. 3) and Searcy Whaley, in addition to recording his memories of the year he spent observing Sister Ignatia at work at St. Thomas Hospital in Akron. In 1953 Sgt. Bill teamed up with famous American psychiatrist Louis Jolyon 'Jolly' West at Lackland Air Force Base in San Antonio, Texas, to develop a method of alcoholism treatment (given further development in the mid 1960s by Dr. Joseph J. Zuska and Dick Jewell at Long Beach Naval Station) called the Lackland-Long Beach Model. It became one of the three basic types of A.A.-oriented alcoholism treatment program, along with the Minnesota Model and Sister Ignatia's more spiritually oriented approach. Sgt. Bill does not just talk psychiatric theories in this book. He uses his own life story to show how traumatic loss, poverty, inadequate selfesteem, envy, self-pity and rage can drive children and youths into isolationism, rebellion, self-sabotage, and ultimately the descent into uncontrollable alcoholism or drug addiction. But in his humanistic understanding of the twelve step program he also shows us how to make use of the healing power of the spirit of Love and Service to our fellow human beings to restore ourselves to new life.
