About This Item
Paperback / softback. New. Details the transformation of alcohol from virtue to vice and back again, how it was thought of as both scourge and medicine. This title tells us how the great American thirst developed over the centuries, and how reform movements and laws (some of which, the author says, were "comic masterpieces of the legislator's art") sprang up to combat it.
