Synopsis
This book is a sermon against the liquor traffic in America, given by Rev. George R. Stuart in 1904. Stuart examines the extent to which the liquor industry has woven itself into American society, presenting an economic analysis to demonstrate that prohibition would actually benefit the country's finances, and argues that the social costs of alcoholism far outweigh any profits made from the distillation or sale of liquor. He looks back 2,000 years to show how God's condemnation of cities built with blood applies to America, discussing the ways in which the nation's leaders have been bought by the brewers and distillers. Stuart's ideas remain strikingly pertinent today and serve as a reminder of the devastating effects of alcohol abuse on individuals and society.
