Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Drink, Temperance and Legislation This book deals mainly with the drink question in the United Kingdom, but numerous illustrative facts are drawn from other countries. It is written from the standpoint of an observer and student who has no interest in the liquor traffic, no connection with any temperance organisation, no foregone conclusion to prove and no favourite panacea to advocate. It rather endeavours to remove the subject from these associations, which are apt to distort the vision, and to see things more as they are than as interest or fancy would have them be. The chapters to which I would draw particular attention are those on ´Drink in the Past,´ ´The Decline of Drunkenness,´ ´The Forces of Temperance,´ ´The Forces of Intemperance,´ and ´The Principles of Liquor Legislation.´ They embody a connected argument bearing on the last point. A portion of the matter contained in the first three chapters mentioned has been published before in the form of separate essays.
