The most complete treatment of the subject ever written.
The word sweepstakes is one of the most recognized in the English lanuage. Over 46 million people play sweepstakes with a core of 5 million who enter often. Lawrence Curtin and Karen Bernardo trace sweepstakes from their roots forward through both Eastern and Western Civilization to its current form. Here you can find out the little known origin of the word. Also you will find a historical solution to our morden day social security problem that was proposed to Congress in 1784 as a way to fund pensioner's retirements. Curtin and Bernardo spent two years researching this project. That included reading thousands of court cases in both the United States and the United Kingdom. This work represents the most extensive and entertaining treatment of this subject ever written.
