Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book gives the biographical details of John B. Gough. Not only does it present his personal experiences, but it's a reflection of the inception and progress of the temperance reformation over four decades. In the years leading up to the 18th century, drunkenness was no different from any other vice. However, with the advent of the art of distillation, the production of strong alcoholic beverages began. Though initially used as medicine, it quickly became a beverage and a stimulant. Gough's narrative is set against the panorama of a wider social history and his journey from alcoholism to sobriety mirrors the evolving attitudes towards the consumption of alcohol. The author focuses on the various aspects of the temperance movement and the devastating consequences of alcohol abuse within society. Filled with evocative incidents and stories, this book explores a vice that has plagued humanity for centuries, right up until the 19th century. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781334153112_0
