Description: This home made book is made of cardstock and a maroon comb binding. It has a clear front cover and maroon back sheet of cardstock. I became amazed when I first read this because this guy, who lived to be over 100, began staying sober in some of the ways we do in AA. The guy was way ahead of his times. Discourses on a Sober and Temperate Life is a classic health and wellness guide by Lewis Cornaro. It is a thing past all doubt, that custom, by time, becomes a second nature, forcing men to use that, whether good or bad, to which they have been habituated: nay, we see habit, in many things, get the better of reason. This is so undeniably true, that virtuous men, by conversing with the wicked, very often fall into the same vicious course of life.So no, not exactly like AA, but he was headed in the right direction. Him and Bill and Bobwould have been best of friends I believe!Please email with any questions.
