From the rear cover
Drink, the curse of Britain, was sweeping the land, or so it seemed to Englishmen in the first decades of the nineteenth century. Part One traces this early temperance reform from its original purpose of supporting moderate drinking to its adoption of total abstinence and then to the development of a prohibition movement. Part Two focuses on the great crusade to set up an 'England free from drink'.
